Really nice group of tanks.

[pyromaniac398]

Nice tanks everyone

[tomc1980]

Nice tanks everyone as always its hard to pick one tank outta so many that look that good.

[Jay03GT]

Great looking tanks everyone! Really tough to decide.

[Jason L]

Just poped on here and want to tank every one for voting,and good luck to all!!!!!!!!

[plecosword]

Those are awesome tanks! Hard to chose one

[Tonz of fun]

Just wanted to chime in again...Jason Ls tank is light with all T5s so for any doubters the proof is in the pudding. Nice tank Jason...

[Jason L]

Thanks, Love the T5s

[JackedupSOB]

Nice tanks as usual
good luck to everyone

[e_baer]

All the tanks look great!

[Mr. Tang]

No offense to any other tank owners in this months contest, but this is getting comical!! What are you guys basing your votes on???

[Kevin W]

Comical?? What do you base your votes on thats so much better than anyone else??

[e_baer]

People usually base their vote on the look of the tank and which they like best.

[Mr. Tang]

I think in this months case, I would base my vote on how the tank actually looks. IMO, there are tanks here that got votes that should have gone else were. Almost like you are voting for your buddys tank.
For example, Januarys TOTM was really interesting to watch were the votes went. There were two tanks that got the majority of the votes based on the DT appearence( I would assume thats why they got the votes). This month just seems a little different to me.
Might I be so bold to say also that I think there should be only two tanks recieving the majority of the votes this month. The other tanks to me just don't seem to be up there.

Again, this is not said to be mean or rude, just a thought.

[Jason L]

and what are those 2 tanks?

[aquasalt]

I'm going to have to disagree. Each tank is different and is great in it's own right.

[e_baer]

Also, some peoples cameras are not nearly as good. Just becasue someone gets a "good shot" of their tank does not mean it will get all the votes.

[aquasalt]

That is a very good point. Also, I have brought up this point before in another thread, I would like to see more background information on everyone's tank, including sump (as you have shown Mr. Tang). I'll see if I can dig up the post so we can continue this there.

Another important point is that the poll listed at the top should list the contestants in the same order that the tanks are presented in. I hate to say this, especially as a Florida resident, but the current polling design is flawed because of this inconsistency.

[Mr. Tang]

yours and mine

[dori9941]

You do make it hard to pick don't you, LOL.
I don't know on this they are all very very nice.
I do love coraline algae! I'll catch up e_bear It might take a year or two.
Good luck all

I don't want your vote. I want people to vote based on their tastes. And by the way the votes are going, you people have awful taste!!!!

Oh well no ones perfect

And yes I do think my tank looks better than these for this month!!

[e_baer]

Mr. Tang. I dont want to cause tensions between us, but what you are doing and saying is not pleasant at all. If you dont win TOTM who cares? Try again next month! It is not worth starting big arguments over such a petty thing. I think a few people here need to relax a bit, its just pictures!!!
