:/ mine was doing awesome. My starfish decided to give you all a fighting chance though and tipped it over into my lobo, which summarily digested the whole back half. My kraken is streight up bald now. Front half looks good still though

Serious question, how do you get in on these grow out contests? I see them on here from a couple of different places and they look like a lot of fun but haven’t figured out how to sign up.

There's usually signups for interest and also for backups for those that fill up quickly. Best option is to get on an interest list or just follow some of the vendors that have been doing them. Hopefully you're able to get in on one as they can be really fun.

As long as its not something fast-growing and bland....im game.

 

[billyocean]

The reason you dont see me in other acro growouts is either its a lottery for one I want that Im not drawn for....or I dont want it in the first place. Always game for some friendly competition though
