New Contest in the Works....

[Melody]

:Holiday-17:

I'm horrible with surprises, gifts & the like... I get excited and wanna tell. Jay's gonna kill me but ......:;):

Forum sponsor Aquanourriplus.com (http://www.aquanourriplus.com/) is donating copious amounts of fish food as prizes for a new contest! :notworthy:

We've decided that our community needs profiles and articles most as they benefit the membership now and to eternity. Jay will get the official rules up soon, but basically all you have to do is post a great profile or article here and you're entered to win! Those who have already contributed are going to be grandfathered into the contest out of appreciation for your efforts (excluding Jay & myself of course). If you've already contributed, you're already entered. However, you'll get an entry for each submission so get to work!

As always, we appreciate the effort that our membership has put forth to make this a great community and thank our sponsors for their support! Remember these sponsors when you shop - they're obviously astute business people and very much focused on making hobbyists happy! Our sincere thanks to Aquanourriplus.com for their support!

Now I have a question for our sponsor - do we know which kinds of food we'll be handing out? You have quite a selection (http://www.aquanourriplus.com/boutique/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=26_39)!

Thanks!

[ChrissyFishy]

Wow thanks!!! I will be thinking hard!!!:Think::idea:

[_BaDgUy_]

Here's one contest I could participate in, but it kinda kills the whole thing!!!

Heres a question for Melody and CACAdmin : do you guys mind if I add some "surprises"?? :eek:

:nah: Don't think it would be a good idea?? :laugh:

[WaterPond]

We love suprises!

I have a few more profiles and articles in the works :):GEEK:

[Melody]

As long as they're legal and won't cost an arm & a leg to ship. :laugh:

[Melody]

Ya know the great thing about fish profiles, is we don't have very many. You can write about many of the more common fish and I bet it wouldn't take half an hour.

Half an hour for 5 pounds of food.... that's pretty good wages! ::D:

[CACAdmin]

Food for Thought?

All you need to do is to organize and post your knowledge (thoughts:;): ) about a species of fish in a Profile or Article and you get a chance at winning lots of food for your fish. We have even provided a template (http://www.canadianaquariumconnection.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1115) you can use for the Profile.

What are you waiting for? :FishQuestion: Contest Ends Sept. 29th, 2007.!

[CACAdmin]

Just 10 days left!


That's right! You have only 10 days left to get that profile or article submitted for a chance to win some food for your fish from Aquanourriplus.com (http://www.aquanourriplus.com/). So what are you waiting for? Get busy writing (or be prepared to answer to your fish :;): ).

Thanks to all those members who have taken the time to submit profiles already. :smile: Remember each profile or article you submit gets you another entry into the draw! Contest closes Sept. 29th.

Your last week to work for food! Thanks for the effort we've seen thus far, the fish profile section is really shaping up! Share your knowledge in an article too, you don't have to be an expert to write an article, just write what you know. It doesn't have to be about fish, it can be about shrimp or plants or what-have-U. Same goes for profiles.

I hope to get the food in this week!

A member just asked if Profiles of Plants were acceptable. Most definitely we would be thrilled to have members post Profiles or Articles of Plants as well. :yes:
