Wow.
When we started this as a fun little event, we never thought we'd be looking back a month later at 1200 threads and over 4000 posts. Your enthusiasm and support have been simply overwhelming. Thank you.
So here we are on the last day of November, and this will be the last day to post pictures for inclusion in the remaining contests. Please feel free to continue to post your pictures in the Photography Forum after today.
We will make every attempt to get the remaining polls up through next week. Unexpectedly, SWFishy will not be in the office until Wednesday so I apologize in advance for the delays in posting the polls. As you can imagine, it is impossible to physically review 4000 posts...so matching your name to ours exactly is imperative. You can pm SWFishy if you feel there has been an error, but we are not going to re-do polls. So, be sure your entry matches exactly. Finally, on that note, since there can be variation within the coral species and often conflicting interpretations of what in fact the species is...we will be using the saltwaterfish.com picture and description as the guide. These are the animals that we sell and obviously the picture must reflect the stock that we have. So, we won't post pictures for the poll that might have the same species name, but does not accurataly reflect what we sell. I'm sure you understand.
The pictures have been outstanding and we look forward to awarding our grand prize the week after next from all the winners. I hope you all enjoyed this contest...and the spirit of fun and camaraderie it was intended to promote. If so, we'll definitely do other contests and events in the future.
Thanks for all your support.
