August NTOTM...Top Down!
This is going to be a fairly normal ntotm contest. I would like to see a lot more entries this time than last time. Anyone who thinks their nano is totm material please submit some photos!
heres the rules: 1. each entry may submit 4 pictures, one of which must be a top down full tank shot, one regular fts, and the other 2 may be whatever you would like 2. your tank must be between 10 and 40 gallons. 3. thats pretty much it...i had a few more but i dont wanna leave anyone out On August 20th i will pick 5 tanks with the help of some people, that we think are the best choices...I will also go by the comments left on this thread. I will post a new thread with the 5 finalists and 1 picture of either the regular fts or the top down. I think its simple enough, not leavin anyone out. Let's see those tanks! |

PurpleUp August NTOTM Submission
Introducing my BC14 with 20k HQI Lighting, MaxiJet 1200, ATO, and CPR Skimmer... almost 5 months old.
Does this qualify as top down? There is too much of a glare if taken directly from above due to intense HQI lighting. Close up FTS Taken 1 week ago with A LITTLE LESS coral, just to show that I do have a fish in here! (There is also a Purple Firefish that you can see from the top down shot) P.S. I'd like to reserve my 4th pic for a better all-in-one group photo, where all fish (and maybe some crabs/snails/etc) can be seen. |

purpleup- Sweet tank. Where did you get the cool shells that are in there and is there anything living in them?

Shells
The shells are from a place called Coral Garden, located in the southern Philippine Islands. While on vacation several weeks back, I took a couple of intro scuba dives where I saw "live" shells amongst the gigantic reef colonies. I wanted my tank to somewhat resemble what I saw, so I added these empty ones to the mix. Anything alive would not have made it past U.S. customs! But hopefully one day a crab may decide to make one of the smaller shells its new home.
