I'm trying to gauge the interest in doing another nano build contest this winter.

I'm still arranging the sponsor and prize, but it will be a nice prize like we have had in the past.

To learn more about the rules of our past contests, click here: http://www.captivereefs.com/forum/nano-contest/2012-nano-contest-rules-sponsored-orphek-19724/

Please post here if you are interested. I'll update this thread with details as they develop.

I have been planning this next tank since the previous year! :)

I'm in for reals this year! Even though we're still in progress of finishing up our relocation from Cbus to Cincy, we plan to be settled into a house in time for this to start. Even if we're not... my plan should be somewhat portable.

Looks like we have a sponsor and a prize for this contest! The 2013 Nano Contest will be sponsored by AquaFx (http://www.aquariumwaterfilters.com/) (Aquarium Filters).

The prize will be a barracuda RO/DI water filtration system (http://www.aquariumwaterfilters.com/shop-by-product?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage-ask.tpl&product_id=22&category_id=12)!

I will be posting the dates for the contest to start shortly. In the mean time, if you know you want in on the contest, start a new thread in our Nano Contest Forum (http://www.captivereefs.com/forum/newthread.php?do=newthread&f=159) and select the 2013 Nano Reef Contest from the Subtopic dropdown (when you start the new thread it is an option in front of the thread title).
