    I/we will be doing another Picture of the Month contest. Please give me some ideas/thoughts on a theme. I'm thinking it's gonna be a specific potm. Thoughts: Coral, inverts, fish etccccccccccc......
    The last one went really well and I'm hoping this one does to. With your help it will.;D::);D
    The participation was killer in the July POTM. See here.

    I think the theme should be fish. Fish POTM. Why? Well, it's more challenging to get a pic of them sometimes! Just my $0.02. I wish I had something to take a pic of......but I don't.

    I like fish also. I think they are more challenging and they can really show personallity in a tank/pic!

    Yeah, fish would be good, if your going to be specific. I also kinda like the idea of it just being anything tank related, as it could open the doors for more creativity and a wider range of cool shots to be posted

    I agree with that as well, after looking at July's contest I think it should be any tank shot with the same rules as July

    The contest did go smooth this way. Gives room for more participation? If the contest were shrimp pics, maybe only 10 would join in rather than 30.

    Exactly. Just about evryone here could at least post something. And I say anything tank related. Fish, coral, snails, even really cool DIY set-ups possibly.
    Just my 2 cents ;)
