September Photo Contest--SOFTIES

[Anonymous]

Welcome to Reefs.org's September Photo Contest: SOFTIES!

After a spectacular turnout for our 2-month summer contest, we're back to business for fall. This month we're focusing on a subject most of us have in our tanks, so we should get some great shots out of this contest as well. Any kind of soft coral--xenia, mushrooms, even anemones (technically not a soft coral, but close enough for us!), etc. Let's see some of those beautiful and creative softie photos!
_______________________________________________________________

This submission period ends at9:00 AM EST October 1, 2004.

(I changed the contest close to 9am on the first for this contest because I got tired of staying up late to close the contest. he-he!
