Not me this time...
I did COTM last month and made the ultimate sacrifice....I not only spoke of monti eating nudi I developed them and lost the whole colony and my other monti JUST FOR YOU GUYS

See how much I love you all

Besides, I have not bought any new corals or fish since that time to donate to the learning cause this time...no new pests to introduce into my system!

Good response, Schackmel. I think that buying new corals when things aren't going so well, is like a couple that decides to have a child because the marriage is on the rocks. Just as that couple expects that they'll become closer because "they have to," is as invalid an assumption as "if I spend lots of money on new corals I'll be that much more apt to husband my tank better." It's just not the case. Just as the couple needs to fix the marriage, we need to fix the tank.

Good luck!

You're alright, Mission!! I'm going to have to get some more experience it seems. My tank isn't in great shape lately.

Yep, it's all you. Keep in mind that it has changed slightly. It's a bit looser than it was in 06'. No need to PM Matt for the submission(atleast that is how it's been since I've been on).

ok ill put coral of the month together for oct.

missionsix66 · 11-01-2008, 03:30 PM

And for November? COTM and FOTM. The "stickys" that have a couple of important rules have been replaced with the "new server" info. If you are un-sure or need help, ask/let us know.
Any takers? I could whip one/two out........

BluePhish · 11-01-2008, 04:03 PM

Go for it. Here's a format for the coral (or fish) to copy/paste and fill in the blanks. One of the rules that isn't posted is:You have to use your OWN pic for the submission. Look through a couple more for reference and ideas. And try to pic something I have in my tank so I can share a pic j/k. Good luck and thanks.
