[Reefer Reboot]

Currently tied! @aquaman.shalom needs to put up some recent pictures.

 

[Driceftw]

Currently breaking the tie for Aquaman! Choosing all that fluffy euphyllia for the back rockwork really helped fill that tank out and you can't help but appreciate the tiny long polyp toadstool holding its own out in front.

Side note: A contest I wouldn't actually mind coming in second! The Florida looks pretty darn sweet.

 

[Red_Beard]

Looking GREAT!!!

 

[Daniel@R2R]

Hey everyone, tomorrow is the last day to vote so get your votes in pronto! Here are a few more recent photos that I wanted to add before the voting ended. As you can see in the pics below the colors of the corals in the tank are very healthy and looking rich and bright in color. I have had some good growth but the tank has not had the time to reach its full potential. In a few months I will update the thread so everyone can see how it looks filled in. Its been a blast and thank you Reef2Reef for hosting this great contest.

Awesome!!
