Well it's been slow around here for TOTM...but with these noms and I will third them since a Mod can't technically second any nominations (at least they couldn't before) Hopefully as more people join the site and they're tanks progress we will see an influx.

I am so excited to see all these Tanks getting into the swing of TOTM! Please remember to second a Tank that you like. A reef is never done so Posting your tank that you think just is not the way you want it yet, guess what good luck with that Idea. Nominate your tanks!
