In the next few days, if you haven't already, everyone needs to start a thread in this forum be sure to select "2011 Grow Out Contest for your subtitle when you post the thread. Your first post should have some details about the tank they are growing in and also some info regarding maintenance/feeding.

3. Your system should be detailed in a
Member's Reef thread so we know what type of flow, lighting, etc. you have.
4. The contest will run until March 31, 2012.
5. The winner will be chosen by drawing a frag at random. The frag will be posted at the end of the contest and participants will need to submit their final count for that frag via pm along with photos.
