[Rabidgoose]

Lots of prizes awarded and more to be had every month at CR! You winners show us what you got with your GC.....Pictures of coral are always welcome.....:big_grin:

[spelodiver]

Tina is great to work with and the livestock is top shelf.....

I choose this Grape Wine Phytygyra as it really stood out with the purple centers...

The $25 gift certificate made this piece about half price and I had to pay the shipping...But it was a great excuse to get a high end coral….still comparable to most of the coral resellers…

My tank is 18" deep with a 14k Hamilton 175 SE bulb with electronic ballast...No supplemental lighting....

Thanks to the guys that are running this forum and to Tina and the other great sponsors.

First picture is without flash...
Second picture is with flash...

[Rabidgoose]

A BIG shout out to the Sponsors for their participation. Lots of prizes awarded with a lot more up for grabs. Their is always a contest going on at Captive Reefs!!

To clarify...."UNCLAIMED"...is not a member of CR, these are prizes that have not been awarded. Please remember that you must claim your prize to win.

[jimsflies]

For the winners, please share your spoils with us with a picture in this thread...When you finally claim your prize, I know I'd love to see what you got.

[Rabidgoose]

Check out the Nano ContestHEREand help us choose a winner. It's going to be a tough decision so we need everyone to vote. The poll is closing on 6-21 so don't wait to long.

[Bella127]

That is very nice of sponsors to donate these items. During this economy , I appreciate their generosity.:hypnodisk:

[softiegirl]

<<< new name, UNCLAIMED. tee hee :roll_eyes::secret2::mouth_zipped:

[Tom@HaslettMI]

Well, the early June move went well for the tank so, I cashed in the May POTM money at Crazy Ricks...

Carnival Clove polyps (blue blob in between the pagoda coral frags) They're not fully open yet but they are blue with green and yellow highlights! I'll try to get a better pic soon.
http://i137.photobucket.com/albums/q234/tomalwin/IMAG0122.jpg

I had to put a few extra dollars into the cloves but well worth it in my opinion.

Tom

[Chelle's Ocean]

I cross my heart and promise to post here if I ever win, heehee:fish2:

[jolson10450]

woo finally my name up there!! well not yet but i won the pet connection one! i will update with pictures of what i get when i receive it!

[jolson10450]

ok here is what i used my $25 gift card on. some pretty uncommon things but i didn't have them and nothing else really caught my eye.

I got a frag with 15+ polyps of purple deaths
and a 1 polyp frag of blasto wellsi

Cost me a total of $1.50 out of my pocket for both.

Thanks Pet Connection!

[Rabidgoose]

evolutionracr please claim your prize!! http://www.captivereefs.com/forum/showthread.php?p=84335#post84335

I penciled you in as a winner, however you must claim your prize. I don't want to change it to the dreaded "UNCLAIMED"

[Sir Patrick]

Think the prizes were switched on this one- I got the cert to the trop and think brian got the midwest one-

Sir Patrick 2/15/2010 Reefer-All $25 Gift Certificate Midwest Saltwater

[Sir Patrick]

And after a few dollars on top of their great price, I got one of these at reef paradise-

I picked up the 1050!

[jolson10450]

well i would post what i got from reef peddlar but i decided to donate it to the raffle at the A2 swap because it is just to far away for me. i live on lake erie they are off of lake michigan, complete opposite sides of the state!

[Rabidgoose]

A very nice gesture...you shall be rewarded with exceptional coral growth....:pope:

[jimsflies]

According to my estimates we have given out over $1300 in prizes so far since CR started last year! We've had 37 different opportunities to win....and more to come! :)

[Sir Patrick]

Very cool of you jolson!!!

[jolson10450]

thanks for the blessing lol

and thanks chris!

very kind of you. I was thinking about doing the same with that phosphate meter, but I'm a noob and don't have anything like that yet, and it will come in handy. Jim, it's very nice of you guys to do this stuff. I will get a few more frags together to donate to your raffle for the swap though. Thanks again guys.

[jimsflies]

Awesome! The Ann Arbor guys will be glad to hear it. The raffle proceeds from the swap will go to their club to get themselves set up.

BTW- We have another CR Trophy...the Fishbowl Winner trophy for the winners of the infamous CR fishbowl drawings at the swaps. Be sure to get your name in the fishbowl at each swap for a chance to win a cool prize from CR and our sponsors...and add this beauty to your postbit!

[John]

Thats a nice looking trophy Jim. I'll be sure to keep adding my name to those fishbowls.

[Rabidgoose]

More winners posted and more chances to win.....we need some more pictures in here showing the goodies.

The Boss keeps giving stuff away so I guess i'm never getting a new company car.....:crying:

[Rabidgoose]

The dreaded "UNCLAIMED" (refer to post 4) has reared his ugly head again. In the future please, if you know the winners of the fishbowl contests please give them a heads-up within the alloted time so they can join CR and claim there prize.

thanks........chuck

[jolson10450]

here is my acan from my october winner from reef peddlar! got it at the swap, paid a few extra $ on top of the gift card price though but this is one of my favorite acans! bright orange with blue spots and in a few spots there are some rainbow colors starting to pop out:

[Tom@HaslettMI]

I just received the Air,Water & Ice RO/DI unit today. I pulled it out of the box and it looks like a well made unit. I already have an RO/DI unit so I'm planning to give this one to my dad. He has a 55 gallon FW tank that has been running for thirty years.

Thank you Air, Water, & Ice and Captive Reefs!

Tom

[MizTanks]
