    Thank you, Steve. I don't guess I'm allowed to take pics starting to day and post them when the contest starts. I have some interesting stuff going on to serve as a learning experience for people. I've been around the block more than once with Discus.

    This sounds great! the only rule is that you post 1 picture of your tank every day right? not that the pics have to be taken that day?

    I think the idea is still in the development stage, but I would argue for a new, somehow dated pic, each day.

    At this point we would.like to have it so the picture is taken and posted that day. That keeps it fair to everyone and makes it a challenge. You cant take 30 pics for instance one day and post from them the month.

    Pics can be verified by their embedded data as to when they were taken.

    So the challenge grows! Not only do you have to interact with your computer or phone for 30 days, but you have to connect with the outside world of your fish, too!

    Sounds good to me.

    As it is I am super excited about my tank and will gladly post pictures of it. Guess that is what happens when you switch from a boring Giant Gourami to Discus who have gone from scared fish playing hide behind the log to brave fish who come to the front to beg for food whenever they see me.
    They are starting to remind me of the time I had Oscars and Green Terrors.

    Hopefully this will become a regular event - I have not set my tank up yet and am targeting late July early August

    I like the idea! what if you add to the challenge say each person still in kick in an extra 5 bucks at the end of each week that way they would have a little more skin in the game. Thoughts?

    I think this would be very cool and break the ice for a lot of people here who don't really want to post anything in fear of giving misinformation like myself lol I don't have enough discus to last a last Man standing contest though lol

    And if all fall short the amount would carry over to the next month just like a skins game in golf.
    And continue to build until some one would win.
    Great start Al.

    That is mighty nice of you Tom

    Tom, go to the top of your browser window and click on Forum. Then scroll down until you find the subforum you wish to create a new thread and click on that forum. The window will update to show the threads in the subforum and you will see a button called "Post New Thread". Click on that and post away.
