Default SEPT 08: EA Photo - Rare And Unusual

Welcome to another EA Photo Contest on Canreef!


This months subject: RARE AND UNUSUAL

Here's the deal, there are basically two options:

1) Your picture contains a rare or unusual piece of livestock.

2) Your picture doesn't necessarily contain a rare piece of livestock but something about it makes it rare and unusual. For example this could be a fish not normally reef safe kept in a reef tank or two tank mates that shouldn't get along but do.

Either way your picture should clearly show this and fit the theme. Also be careful, when it comes to voting I will be asking everyone to vote for what they believe to be the most rare or unusual subject.

Also as usual I want new pictures please, not old ones!

Requested, but not required, members should post info about their picture. This could include a picture title and camera specs.




Only the first 20 entries will be used, so do not delay.Entries will be accepted until SEPT 22, 2008.

Post entries here, if you cannot post your picture please email it to me (sphelps@sasktel.net) and I will post it for you.


Good Luck!!

The winner will be determined by you, the voters, and the winner will receive a framed picture and possibly a special bonus prize depending on the turn out.




Contest Rules are as follows:

1) You must follow the guidelines given for each contest

2) ALL members including vendors can enter, I just ask that the picture is from a personal or display tank, not store stock.

3) As long as YOU take the picture and it fits the guidelines you can enter it, I don’t care whose tank it’s from

4) First come, first serve up to 20. But do not hesitate to continue posting pictures if 20 were already posted.

5) Each can post as many pictures as they want, but only ONE can be entered. Please specify which one when posting multiple pictures or I will choose for you.

6) Have Fun!

Here's mine then. I don't think it's good enough to win, but it's fun to share photos and support the forum activities.

It's a wild caught True Perc with spectacular coloring - albeit not quite spectacular enough to be a Picasso.

I found this a few weeks back in my tank, I believe it's called a club tipped anenome....
