Attention CTARS members….it’s time once again to put your reefing skills to the test!!

f1ec4659fdc96638d5902154db47daaf_f190.jpg


So just like before, whatever your argument or preference…MH over LED’s…or vice versa…two part dosing over calcium reactors…
Let’s put our corals where our mouths are…have some fun and grow some coral for the ultimate bragging rights!!!

The contest will be based on the increase in the number of polyps this time.
We will run this contest for 3 months; from January 1st until April 1st.​


This competition is open to CTARS members only.
Deadline for entry is November 23, 2014 at 8:00pm

After this date and time, no further entries will be accepted and monies will be returned therefore,
sign up as soon as possible!! You can do so by going...
HERE


An official competition thread will go up and be stickied by January 1st.​


OFFICIAL RULES

1. As a group pick a coral for the contest.
2. A $20.00 buy in to be paid through PayPal on ctars.org.
3. A contest thread will be created to track the progress of each contestant. Each participant will be required to check in via a post to the specified thread with a picture that clearly shows the growth of their frag as well as a written statement as to the polyp count.
4. All photos will be due between the 28th and the 2nd of every month.
5. If the participant fails to post a photo by the 2nd they are disqualified from the contest.
6. Capt (Mike), the head of this competition committee, will be keeping track of the entries, and everyone’s monthly submissions and will post the current standings each month.

7. The winner will be declared by the increase in the number of polyps (each frag will be cut to 2 polyps to keep the results clear).
8. At the end on the contest the winner will be asked to do a small write up about what they did to get the best growth.


(The PayPal button for this was originally giving people some issues. This has been fixed.)

Let's do this. Hopefully this time there can be a clear winner. I don't really get bragging rights it's more that my memory isn't shot like everyone else and I posted mine on time.
