Hello SimplyDiscus members and happy summer. I would like to introduce our monthly photo contest for July and hopefully put everyone in the mood to take some discus tank mate photos. This month's contest will be DISCUS TANK MATES themed. Please submit your best shot of a fish or invertebrate that you consider a tank mate to your discus fish. That's right, it does not have to even be a fish, it could be a shrimp or a snail. Anything that is a tank mate to a discus. This month's winner will receive a new in box Eheim automatic feeder as seen here https://www.eheim.com/en_GB/accessories/installation/feeding_fish_feeder and a small baggie of Al's loose biopigment FDBW that work really well with this feeder.

See the normal rules and disclaimers below.

1. Please only submit one photo. Should you submit more entries, we will automatically use your first posted picture.
2. You must be the person that took the picture and have permission to use it.
3. Your submission gives us permission to use the photo for this contest, host it on an offsite location and post it in a poll on SimplyDiscus.
4. Post processing is allowed, ie Cropping, sharpening, color correction etc. The goal with PP should be to bring out the images natural beauty or appearance. We strongly encourage our members to make use of the Photo Centre's free information center to improve their skills. ..(http://forum.simplydiscus.com/forumd...6-Photo-Centre) . Photos submitted must not have additional elements added that were not in the original image unless contest rules specifically allow for it.
5. No commenting please, comments will be deleted by moderators.
6. Since winners are determined by poll, all registered members of SimplyDiscus including Admins, Moderators, Sponsors, and Subscription holders are eligible to participate.
7. The contest will extend through July 21st and we will reserve the last 10 days of July for voting.

We have tried to anticipate all issues and make the rules clear and concise, but should an issue or problem arise we maintain all rights to resolve it as we see fit. You agree to this by your submission

Now get to taking some photos.

I'll throw something into the hat :) My Livingstonii, he is normally the color of the other camo looking females in the background but hes got other things on his mind these past few weeks and gets this amazing blue color!

Edit: WOW...I should have read the OP better, this....is NOT a tankmate for Discus... Please delete if applicable :D
