To enter this contest you simply need to post a single photo per post in this thread and the most reactions/likes wins. Only members with at least 3 posts may participate.

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 and the 1 picture per post requirement, 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, amazon.co.uk or amazon.com.au... so only US, CA, UK and Australia residents should participate at this time.

Just rescued this 5 gallon overstocked tank from someone who was “too busy” for it and was about to “just let the tank and residents die”. Water was so green and sludgy and covered with algae you couldn’t even see thru the glass anymore… tank had no heater, no airstone, just a clogged filter that wasn’t being ran, water was never changed, tank was never once cleaned in over a year, water was not conditioned ever, and fish were being over fed and was overstocked, also incorrectly stocked. Anyway, I offered to take the burden off the person to save the fishies and I did a deep clean and re-scaped the whole thing added a heater new filter cartridge added a bubbler added carbon saved the cycle and got parameters to stabilize at 0-0-5 in 3 weeks. Kinda proud of myself cuz I’m fairly new to this hobby.
