BIG CORAL Contest 2012! Show yours off and WIN!

revhtree · May 23, 2012

This is a simple contest and will run three weeks starting now until June 13th @ 11pm est. time!

The object of the contest is to post pics of your big corals. Here is how it works and the rules.

1. For a coral to qualify it must be at least 6" long or wide.
2. You must take a picture of the coral with a ruler next to it and something that has R2R and your username on it.
3. You can post as many corals as you have that are over 6" long or wide for multiple entries in the contest. It is important that you start a NEW post for each coral or you will only get one entry.
4. Pictures must be legible enough for us to determine the size requirement is met. You will need to hold the ruler very close to the coral and inside the tank. If we can't determine the size or it looks like the ruler was not close enough then the picture will be disqualified. Sorry.

2 WINNERS:

Random Winner - In two weeks I will pick one winner by random draw and the winner will receive a $100 gift certificate to use at Live Aquaria for fish, coral, or anything else you want to buy. The more coral entries/post you have, the better your chances of winning.

BIG CORAL WINNER - There will also be a winner that will be determined by the BIGGEST coral! Again the image must show the size clearly. This winner will receive the BIGGEST CORAL 2012 logo under their user name as well as a $100 gift certificate and a R2R Aquarist What We Do T-Shirt. You also get the bragging rights for a whole year!

Well let the games begin!

LOL every ruler I've owned has been 12". Should be perfect for measuring a 12" colony.
