Fishfreak218 Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 Chris said there probably wont be a contest like this but instead... bring back a TOTM Link to comment
fraggle rockette Posted April 21, 2007 Share Posted April 21, 2007 COFFEE POT DARNIT! i got an awesome mod 70s one at goodwill yesterday just for this! Link to comment
Daemonfly Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I say a simpler contest that anyone(or at least more people) can join, not requireing the investment in a new full setup. Best DIY, best coral growth, or something that benefits the hobby itself, like propagation, etc... Best article or EDU thread... Any worthy articles, etc.. can be put on the main site's info area.

Sharpie129 Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 I love the household object concept.... lets push the envelope... I know supahtim did a coffee pot a while back...... it looked sweet.... Link to comment

Maeda Posted April 22, 2007 Share Posted April 22, 2007 There's a lot more very good(better then me) FW aquarists on this site. Trust me. Link to comment
mattyice Posted April 23, 2007 Share Posted April 23, 2007 i think a good idea would be a small prop tank, with only aqua cultured corals in the tank Link to comment
BlackOcean Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 i think a good idea would be a small prop tank, with only aqua cultured corals in the tank Dang you beat me to it. I think a prop tank build up would be sweet. The next contest I am in. No matter what it is. I think the coffee pot idea is by far the best. That would be cheap and the DIY would be nuts. I VOTE COFFEE POT REEF. Link to comment
avalanche1201 Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 what about a picotope contest? I know alot of ppl have those around the forum. think itd be kinda neat Link to comment
Matty1124 Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 coffee pot contest!! that would be so funny, and wouldnt cost much so more people could join... i'd be down EDIT: avalanche we posted at the same time... and i think the point of the contest is that everyone starts at the same time so it doesnt matter what you have cause they will all be new tanks... everyone starts at the same time Link to comment
fraggle rockette Posted April 25, 2007 Share Posted April 25, 2007 COFFEE POT!!!!! come on... please? so awesome... Link to comment
Snazzy Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 i think a good idea would be a small prop tank, with only aqua cultured corals in the tank id like to 3rd that, i would love to do a prop tank and this is a great excuse ) Link to comment
Daemonfly Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 0-sided tank. No glass, no acrylic, only very strong magnetic fields to keep the water in it's shape. Link to comment
Pinner Reef Posted April 26, 2007 Share Posted April 26, 2007 You wanna start a DIY thread on the topic for me Daemon? I did an online seach and there seems to be a lack of info on the topic. I think I could find a coffee pot though... Damn I use mine as life support for myself. -pinner Link to comment
Casabubu Posted April 27, 2007 Share Posted April 27, 2007 0-sided tank.No glass, no acrylic, only very strong magnetic fields to keep the water in it's shape. I like it! It could probably be done with a few thousand volts going through the water . I second pinner reef. You should try it - make Tesla proud Link to comment
Gvtv44 Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 FW!!! I want an excuse to set up a mini bow 7 dwarf puffer planted tank!!! ^ that's a mouthful It would be a nano contest! I know... a fw planted nano contest, with 15 gallons being the max... and we could have a pico level too... below 5 gallons... cheap, small, inexpensive... what do you think CM?? Maeda would win though based on her posts in my thread ("post a pic of your FW tanks!") Link to comment
seabass Posted May 2, 2007 Share Posted May 2, 2007 I want an excuse to set up a mini bow 7 dwarf puffer planted tank!I love those Indian Dwarf Puffers. I have thought about setting up a fake saltwater tank for them. Sandy bottom, and maybe some realistic imitation saltwater corals, sea fans, sponges… The problem that I have with a freshwater contest is that this is Nano-Reef.com and not Nano-Tank.com. I think that it should be a marine system. Link to comment
Gvtv44 Posted May 3, 2007 Share Posted May 3, 2007 Do I hear a sub forum for fw? (Same community and website! This site is the best!) Link to comment
BlackOcean Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Coffee pot!!!!! Would be cheap and fun. Closed loop on a 12 cup. Refumium in the water container in the back. Retro lights. Right on the kitchen counter. Think of it. Link to comment
