I believe the rules suggest that you should at least have your equipment ordered. However, I believe that your empty tank with condiment entry pic will qualify you for the contest. I might try and clarify this for you in the contest announcement thread. 2 Quote Link to comment

seabass Posted February 21, 2020 Share Posted February 21, 2020 I asked that question for you in the main thread: 10 minutes ago, seabass said: I've noticed a couple of questions in a few of the threads that CM may need to weigh in on. I understand that we must have our tanks by the 29th in order to take our condiment entry photo. However: Must all major non-tank equipment (lights, pumps, etc) be ordered prior to the 29th; and if so, must it be delivered by then? Can we change non-tank equipment (lights, heater, etc, as long as it still meets the contest restrictions) throughout the year long contest? Can we add equipment, like a qualifying wavemaker, IceProbe, etc, during the contest? 3 Quote Link to comment

I build a 2x4 stand for a rimless 12mm think glass 90 cube heavy tank - but messed up on and could not fit the 2nd set of legs so I added some L brackets and all was good to be on the safe side I would remove the tank tho. before drilling. empty it in a few bucket before lifting so else it could break. I am excited for you to enter the would of SW its fun and a pain sometimes too, haha but we all love it. Quote Link to comment

seabass Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Nice pics! I like the narrow field of view on the mushroom photo; but sometimes it's easier to get sharp pics by adjusting the aperture. Likewise, for moving subjects like your shrimp, a faster shutter speed will help eliminate motion blur. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
