ALLRIGHT GANG!!!
We are almost half way through this little adventure build off. I wanted to let you guys know a little early so you can get them cleaned up and looking their best. So get them shined up and looking good. I will need 3 pictures from each of you in this contest. So make them good!!!! I will gather the judges and we will choose who has made the most progess so far with their tank.
Now out of the 3 pictures you submit I need 1 pic of how the tank looked when you started. And the other 2 of how it looks today. These pics need to be in by the 3rd of April and we will announce a winner by the 5th of April. And then I will tell the winner what they won!!!! I have a special frag picked out for the winner.
I just want to say that all of you who have participated in this are making AMAZING progress!!! I cant wait to see how they look 4 months from now.
Good luck guys

Wow, seven more days until the close date. I want to thank all those who haven't posted their pictures yet. The rest of us have a better chance of getting something so I may have a shot now!
Just kidding, the rest of you need to post your pictures. I want to see the competition and I know there's at least 5 more of you out there. Now post before you forget and the 3rd comes and goes. It's for a prize people.

Well here is how the tank started;

:rolleyes:
Yesterday she got a minor upgrade, changed the 10g bare bottom tank out for a 25g tall with a DSB. Here is how she looked tonight (of course the bottom Seio's had to tilt a bit and throw up a sandstorm so I had to use a slight blurred out pic. Everything else is the same, but now severely underlit for my tastes with just the single 70w halide, that will soon to change! (more details on my nano thread)

The tank and how it started, my kenya tree, and my fish. The kenya tree wasn't out tonight, it was too late when I turned my lights back on to get a picture.

After having my 75G running for 3 weeks now I consider it a "Nano" since I am already drooling over a 100G at work that I get to setup and deck out as our new SPS department. :)
So does that mean I can enter my 75G in the "Nano" contest? ;)

Naw take another day to two....LOL I wanna get a good shot posted of my 25g nano now with the 250w saki fired up over her :)
