Show Your Colors

jimsflies · 11:56 PM

This month's topic is Show Your Colors...lets see your team spirit by entering corals or fish that have the colors of the sports team you like the most. You may enter up to three (3) times...it doesn't have to be the same team each time. For example, you might go with Red Wings, Lions, and Michigan.

To enter you will need to add your coral entries to the Coral Collector Forum or add your fish entries to the Fish Finder Forum. When you post your thread include your team in the post so we know what team you're rooting for.

Be sure to select the Show Your Colors 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.

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.

This month's prize is a large magnetic frag shelf manufactured by The Alternative Reef. The retail value of this prize approximately $90! It is a large size...about a foot long in total. Here are some pics:

Selection of the Winning Photo

Based on the number of entries submitted, a number of semi-finalists (10% of the entries will be semi-finalists) will be selected by jimsflies and the previous two POTM winners. Semi-finalists will be posted for the general membership to vote on their favorite. In the event of a tie, the tied entries will be reposted for a tie breaking vote with the general membership. Should we receive 10 or less entries, the judging panel will decide the winner. Photos will be judged on topic, composition, and quality.
