Ended๐ WinnerSeptember POTM - SPS
Win a ~1" frag of TSA Fruity Pebbles. Show off your best SPS colony for September and it could be yours. Acropora, montipora, birdsnest, stylophora, any small polyp stony coral is fair game. End of summer stability means peak color and polyp extension, so this is the month to capture your sticks at their best. How to enter: One photo per reefer. Pick your strongest shot. Must be your own tank and your own coral. SPS should be the clear subject of the photo. Shooting tips: Use an orange or yellow lens filter to cut the blue glow and bring out true greens, reds, and purples. Turn off pumps for a few minutes so polyps extend and the image stays sharp. Hold your lens flush against the glass to kill reflections. Shoot in the evening once the tank has settled for the cleanest water column. Voting opens after the deadline on October 1. The community picks the winner, so bring your best. Good luck and happy reefing.
