OK All, this months contest is for all you SPS Reefers out there.

June ~ " Summer growing season is almost here so best pic of your SPS growth tips"

Be creative here with your entries ie: not just Macro shots of growth tips but 'Top Down Shots' or 'Increased Depth of Field shots across tabeling Acros' or '???'

MyHollywood Stunner from the Bob Moore event...started out as a 2X3" piece at most. Now it's about 8" at its widest point. Top down and side view are the same piece, just dusk and daylight about 3 weeks apart.

[Aquanaut]

For what its worth, I couldn't decide which...

[fall0n]

Ok, here's a couple:

This encrusting monti started off as a small maybe 1"x1" without all the protrusions and growth bits.

Great PICS Guys-n-Gals, will pick our monthly WINNER later today.

Jason D, The Purple Rimmed Monti has always been a favorite of mine... wish that I had room for one

Jason, that's going to be sweet M. setosa and not your usual growth form of it... more like M. spongodes or M. confusa.

Charly, that Hollywood Stunner is going to be quite the 'Centerpiece' coral... bet it looks incredible under actinics.

Deb Deb Deb, all we can say is WOW! ( 4th pic of Montipora colonies shows awesome depth of field and is the fron-trunner for now...)

Fishy, tic-toc tic-toc... lol

Cheers, Todd

 

[TJL]

OK... annnnnnnnd the WINNER is.... Debrah (Aquanut) :first: :cheer2:

And to change it up a bit and make more work for Mojo I'd like you (Deb) to send original pic files to Mike at [email protected]the thing is I want both pic #2 & #4. Mike could you please rotate #2 counter-clockwise 90* then crop to match size of #4 and place side-by-side with #4 for an above and side shot of same colonies... make sense??? I'm out of town for a few but you got my # if any ?'s


Cheers & CONGRATS, Todd
