supernip Posted May 13, 2005 Share Posted May 13, 2005 This post is to announce my official participation into the stock portion of the contest. I encourage some of you guys to do the same. the cube has a lot of potential right out of the box and I think a stock tank can look just as good as any of the open category tanks. ingenuity>fancy equipment here are some pics of the cube, for you doubting thomases box top of box surface skimmer working correctly compartments lighting is more than adequate for even lps full tank shot This tank is an exceptionally built machine and well worth the nominal 80 dollars. The moderators did a great job picking this tank and the sponsor is more than generous with the price. This tank has my full endorsement, and so does the stock portion of the competition. Consider this my warning to you suckas, Im gonna win PS The tank is going to house my black ocellaris pair for now until they are transfered to a 20gal sps tank. I will start my official project for the contest starting june first. (I'm not cheating ) Link to comment

MadTownMax Posted May 18, 2005 Share Posted May 18, 2005 This means that nothing can be added to the tank prior to that date, including water... you're so disqualified Link to comment

Blu50Stang Posted May 19, 2005 Share Posted May 19, 2005 Posts like this make me think this contest should be interesting, in more ways than one. If I hadn't just bought a 12g nc, I probably would have picked up a 6g for this contest. Goodluck to those that take part in the contest. Link to comment
boarder Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 Is it ok to put a green carpet and like four clowns in the tank like on the box? Link to comment
imafishboy Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 where do you see four clowns? i think that's all reflection Link to comment

ebin Posted May 20, 2005 Share Posted May 20, 2005 Cool little tank the stock contest will be a good one I think the real experience will come into play. Link to comment
supernip Posted May 21, 2005 Author Share Posted May 21, 2005 yeah clownfishes are in tank right now. moving to sps tank soon ebin, gl Link to comment
crrichey Posted May 28, 2005 Share Posted May 28, 2005 Just wanted to wish you good luck! BTW JAPAN RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Link to comment
Deep_6 Posted May 29, 2005 Share Posted May 29, 2005 I don't want to be negative b/c I know this contest is all in good fun, but how is adding water, rock, and fish before the start date not breaking the rules? It doesn't seem materially different than having an established tank, emptying it to take the start pic, and putting everything back. JMHO... Link to comment
Maxvan1 Posted May 30, 2005 Share Posted May 30, 2005 agree, does seem A BIT unfair, but whats two-three days, dont think its going to make a huge differnce, maybe one zoanthid polyp differnce... Good luck you! Link to comment
