Canreef Nano Contest Voting Thread: "Best Tank"
After 6 months.....
The goals were simple, to make the best reef tank you could on a specific budget using either a standard 5.5g tank or a standard 10g tank. The tank could be modified any way you wanted, as long as you started out with a 5.5 or a 10g and the budget was adhered to. The budget for a contest was $395. Each person who entered the contest had to pay an entry fee, and all of the entry fees are what the final prizes are taken from. The total prize pot is $264 and there are 2 categories, so the winner of each category will receive a $132 gift certificate to the Canreef Sponsor of their choice. The tank categories are: - Best Tank - Most Innovative Tank (can be any tank in the contest) We began the contest with several contestants, but only 5 have made it through to the end. The final contestants are: sphelps, noirsphynx, Chaloupa, Rocketlily, superduperwesman. The contestants have all done a wonderful job on their tanks. Now it's time for the Canreef public to cast their vote. Please look over the following entries and cast your vote for which tank you think claims "Best Tank". Best Tank is pretty straightforward, just vote for the tank you think is the best one in the contest. The Most Innovative Category is a little different. Wikipedia defines innovative/innovation this way: "The term innovation means a new way of doing something. A distinction is typically made between invention, an idea made manifest, and innovation, ideas applied successfully. The goal of innovation is positive change, to make someone or something better." I think that the winner of the "Most Innovative" category should be someone who has found a new and creative way of approaching a particular aspect of reefkeeping. Even more importantly, they need to have applied their idea successfully in their tank. We have one category in addition to the original 2 categories, "Best Theme". This category is sponsored by Kevin & Doug @ Red Coral Aquarium. The winner of this category will receive a $100 gift certificate to Red Coral Aquarium. Red Coral has picked silent judges for this category and is not open to the Canreef Public. The Winner will be announced as soon as I find out. A lot of work was put into these tanks, so please take the voting seriously! And the contestants are.......
