    Those tanks do look awful! Great work! ;) Hey Pered, you wouldn't by any chance know what I did with the GHA nano that was a finalist last year do you? That tank was amazing in all the wrong ways...

    His 14g cube

    This tank is now in my house I am babysitting it... and trying to cure it... What he told me was his big tank(1st picture) and nano got this because of topping off with well and city water and did not take long.. Whats crazy is I got into this hobby because of him years ago when his tanks were FINE.... :cry:

    Hey john maloney.... how long is this contest? 2 weeks? I think I can pull off the ugliest tank ever. Ill do all the donts when beginning a new tank.

    Ill buy a little 10 gallon... throw a halide over it with light 24/7 and use my tap water. Put a piece or two of live rock. over feed some damsels in it. Give that two weeks and I sure I could have one nasty tank ;)
