yah I agree, I'd like to see a race where you see like somebody has like 20 votes , another has 16, and so on. Also Dj, make this a sticky and future contests a sticky until the contest ends, that way it's the first thing they see.

 

[djconn]

Okay, its a sticky...whatever you think will help.

 

[djconn]

Okay, today is the last day to vote! Everyone get their votes in soon.

I wanted to say thanks to all my supporters who have been following my posts since I joined nanotank back in November 04. And especially thanks for those that did vote for me.

This is my first time winning a prize online and it feels great. Last night I told my wife that I was going to check at midnight to see if I made it. I was truly excited when I saw I made second prize. My wife and I were really happy. (I said, see honey all those hours I'm on this site and now I get a little reward, she smiled).

I truly like sharing my ideas and helping others. We should continue to make this forum as friendly and informative as it already is.

Congratulations also to suger magnolia for a truly unbelievable picture. I truly thought it was incysors, his pics are so nice. But now I have to be warned that sugars pics are also remarkable.

DJ, would it be okay to know who posted what pics now that the contest is over. I know Dragons cause he's my brother but I don't know the rest of the users pics.

And lastly, I'd like to thank DJ, for keeping us so competitive and on the edge to who was going to win.

congrats mike, so what did you win guardini? Phosphate or Calcium? As for #1 and # 6, I told you Mike! haha. Incysor is king of super macro, I knew it had to be him in #6, and #1 looked like Sugar Magnolia, but you never believed me, hehe. You need to be a "trusted member" then, you'd know, ha ha ha. Congrats again. As far as everybody else I had no clue who anybody else was.

 

[bbkid43]

Congratulations Suger Magnolia and Mike! I cant wait untill the next contest. Anyone know what it is gunna be?

 

[Sugar Magnolia]

Hehe, I signed on yesterday and was shocked to see my entry up in the top left corner of the page. I was sure #6 was going to edge past me. We'd been tied up for days.

Thanks for all the votes gang. And, as always, great shots from everyone!

Sugar,

How is your pico commin along? I saw that you won the canopy and base for it, that's awesome.

So did you DIY the lights yourself or pre-purchase it? How much light do you have in it?

Can you keep a clam in it?

Mike

 

[Sugar Magnolia]

Mike, I just reposted my pico over in the pico section. The canopy and hood, I told Brian to keep for another contest, since I had Matt make me one last year and didn't really need to start yet another tank.
