This month's topic is Varsity Blues...although with the kids getting back to school, I'm sure most of us won't be too blue :). Enter your blue fish or coral photo and have a chance to win an Infinity Frag Rack by The Blue Glow (http://www.theblueglow.com).
To enter you will need to add your coral entries to the Coral Collector Forum (http://www.captivereefs.com/forum/coral-collector/) or add your fish entries to the Fish Finder Forum (http://www.captivereefs.com/forum/fish-finder/). You may enter as many blue corals or fish as you would like this month to increase your chances...however only one entry per species.
Be sure to select the Varsity Blues from the drop down when you add your entries in the Fish Finder or Coral Collector Forum. When you create the threads in Coral Collector and/or Fish Finder you must also complete the thread fields to the best of your knowledge. Completion of the fields will be taken into accounts when choosing the finalists.
Here is a link that will show you all of the entries in this contest: Varsity Blues Entires (http://www.captivereefs.com/forum/search.php?do=process&prefixchoice[]=varsity_blues)
If you want a little more information on how to add your corals to the Coral Collector or Fish Finder forum, here is a tuturial (http://www.captivereefs.com/forum/site-issues-feedback/how-use-showcase-forums-coral-collector-video-17333/).
