As far as I'm concerned, supernip has not yet officially entered a tank in this contest.
We've asked all of you to take a simple digital (or digitized) photograph of a specific item inside your empty tank. The announcement on how to do that was not made public until the evening before June 1 purposely as a way of discouraging "early starts." Unfortunatly, there are many ways to get around this if you really wanted to, but we are hoping that everyone has the same good-natured attitude that InuYasha has so far expressed towards his competition.
This contest is meant to be a learning and enjoyable experience.
Thank you nip for starting your thread so early and putting in the effort to promote the contest. Please submit your entry photo in the specified thread. (As I've already stated, this tank has not yet been entered into the contest.)
As a side note, you may want to include additional photos of your tank that go above and beyond what is expected to demonstrate you are in fact starting "fair." It may help; your fellow nanoreefers might appreciate it.

for the record, it was only one a-hole who didn't have enough guts to challenge my entry on their own so they created a seperate sn to try and get me disqualified. Thanks for the attention btw.
My 20g replacement tank came in today. So as soon as I find out how to use the internet on my phone, I'll post my official entry pic... which i took almost 2 weeks ago. K thanks

Has the apple shown any growth after being in your tank for a month?
BTW - when are you going to enter your tank with a picture of a vegetable inside of it?
Jus had to give you a hard time - and get your thread back to the top -

wait...but i thought the competition had to show a gradual progression of how the tank develops. how were you going to show this with just two pics?
supernip
Aug 8 2005, 03:51 AM
because there is no way I can fake a wall of clove polyps of different color intertwining

still a shame that you had to drop out because of the crack. is it the standard crack across the front bend?
supernip
Aug 8 2005, 04:06 AM
nope, lateral crack down the side panel. ALL THE WAY DOWN. will post pics later

Hmm, I'm thinking that this competition is turning out to be a bust. How many people have had their tanks crack now?
supernip
Aug 8 2005, 04:23 AM
half? jbj needs to reimburst us. We're probably one of their best, if not the best, source of publicity for them. Or... allow me to switch to the bow and enter that for kicks.

ouch - I can't believe your tank cracked! I feel like I should be running mine in a bucket, just in case....
