May, 2019 POTM Contest - Lion Fish

[dbl]

Welcome to the Reef2Reef POTM Contest - Photo of the Month​

Sponsored by Avast Marine!​

This month's subject - LION FISH​

Deadline to Enter: June 2, 2019 at 11:59 pm (EST)​

​

This month let's do something we haven't done - Lion Fish. I realize the majority may not keep Lions, but there are many that do. I'm a little late getting this posted this month so we'll extend the entry date until June 2nd. Remember, the photo has to have been taken by you, and the lion had to be in your aquarium, or the ocean.

This is a photo contest after all and we're looking for the best photograph. Yes, you can use a post-editing product to better your pictures.

Prize: POTM Winner Banner, one year free Premium Membership and an Avast Marine Porthole courtesy of Avast Marine. Details below. (Note: Winners located outside the United States will be responsible for applicable shipping costs)

How To Enter:
Entering is easy, just a few simple guidelines to follow:

• Enter one photo, taken by you of the subject for the month before the deadline
• Multiple entries, off subject photos, or broken image links will be disqualified
• Entries must be submitted before the deadline
• Photo must be taken by you and in your tank or in the ocean
• You must have an avatar uploaded when you enter
• Prior winner (within the last 6 months) are welcome to enter, but not eligible for the prizes
• In order to qualify to win the Avast Marine Porthole you must also like the Avast Facebook page here: https://www.facebook.com/avast.marine/

Winner Selection:
The mod team will select up to 15 finalists and a poll will be created and posted in the Reef Discussion Forum. The Grand Prize Winner will be determined by Reef2Reef member voting. To be eligible to vote, you must have been a member for 30 days and have 25 meaningful posts. Votes by members not meeting this criteria will be disregarded in the final count. In the case of a tie, the mod team will assist in choosing the winner. Rules, deadlines and terms are subject to change, without notice, at any time. The winner will be posted and tagged in the voting poll and will have 48 hours to claim the prize.

As this is a photography competition, and the goal is to recognize the highest quality picture. So take your time, do your post shot editing, and submit your best image.

. Tattoo I got yesterday. Not in my tank or the ocean as the rules say, so it’s cool if it doesn’t qualify. Still wanted to share. [emoji16]

Ooooh, a fu Manchu. Does he eat frozen?

I have 2 fu's, they never eat enough dead food to sustain. I've had one for over 7 years. Regardless to what some will say all of the dwarf species benefit feom a constant supplement or dominant addition of live foods for long term success.

Gettin it through customs was the hard part
