I've been watching the same thread and think that it is such a cool idea! I may be in if we do it!

How would you factor in trading? E.g I buy some awesome zoas, then 3 months in trade with someone else for a piece of SPS, etc.

Taken from NR.

Im sure we could change this around if need be. (I probably haven't been around long enough to know what everything goes for in the B&S area, so would be nice to have a 2nd member with some background knowledge to help out organizing)

ADDENDUM A:
Calculating "cost" for livestock that was free, rec'd in trade, or purchased at wholesale prices, etc.
-Items rec'd free-- an amount will be deducted from your budget equivalent to what that livestock would commonly be sold for in Livestock Classified Forum of NR.com. Please PM me a pic, along with common name, and I will give you a "price". I have sold and bought quite a bit on the NR Classified Forum over the last two years, and I think I have a pretty good feel for what stuff sells for on here.
If you don't feel this is satisfactory, you would probably be better off not competing in this contest.
-Items rec'd in trade- Same as above.
-Items purchased at wholesale prices-Same as above.
-Items on which you scored a good deal- If you can provide proof of the price you got, cost will be figured at the actual price you paid. If it was a transaction w/a private individual, have them hand-write you a receipt, scan it, and post it on your thread.

I can help out if it we can get some interest and some mod. support.

ahhh, what about 30g "nanos". In some circles those are still considered nanos.

michika · #7 09-23-2008, 03:08 AM

I like the idea of 30g too. I'd be more inclined to participate in a 30g build.

This contest is starting from scratch... not a tank you currently have running..

The idea is to keep it at a low budget, 30G would get too expensive..

I'm in, what do you need?

Edit: I mean "I'm in" as in I'll help. I'd love to participate but my husband will kill me if I set up another tank

Just tell him its a small one this time...

If we get enough people interested, it would be great to have a mod willing to organize threads, maybe create a sub-sub section for the contest build threads instead of adding 10-20 new threads to the already busy tank journal subsection. etc...

We will have to see how many are interested though.
