To enter this contest you simply need to post a single photo per post in this thread and the most reactions/likes wins.

IMPORTANT - You can enter multiple photos but only one photo per post. Pictures must be taken by you. Pictures also need to be inserted into posts as attachments or thumbnails. Links to images on other sites (imgur, photobucket) won't work in the ranking calculations this add-on uses for some reason.

Due to the new feature that merges back-to-back posts within 4 hours, please wait until 4 hours has elapsed or someone posts after your post to prevent the posts from being merged.

Also, no comments in the contest threads please because of the votes being counted by the number of "likes" per post.

The thread will be closed at the end of the month and the winner announced. Winners get a $20 gift code for amazon.com, amazon.ca or amazon.co.uk, so only US, CA and UK residents should participate at this time.

The Great Tanglewood Forest.jpg
Title: The Great Tanglewood Forest
Tank Size: 29 US Gallons
Tank Type: Low Tech Planted Tank
Stock: Neon Tetras, Lambchop Rasboras, Cherry Shrimp, Various snails
Description: “...After the torrential downpours of nature recede away, a great flooded forest remains. Fish from all over migrate to the flooded domain to call their new home and aquatic plants begin growing rapidly and gaining a foothold in this once barren world. A lifeless place that is now teeming with life, this is aquascaping done right!”
PS: This is my very first planted tank I ever built. I really enjoyed making this and look forward to making more in the days ahead. Wishing all my fellow members the best,
JLAquatics

Hello again,

So thought I would give a mini update on our 55g Freshwater Community Tank today. Hope that's ok...and add a greyscale photo.

Pangasius is no longer in here and is now with our Polypterus...things r going well with that thankfully lolz, our danios are in their own tank ...and all our adult guppy/endler are now in this 55g...

Thanks!
