Only registered forum members can participate (registration is free).
All tanks must be the personal property of the entrant.
Only one entry per member per contest.
Contestants may submit up to 5 photos (700X500 or smaller is suggested) of their tank. Contestants may submit a small video, 60 seconds or less, of their tank in lieu of one photo. Entries with more than 5 photos will be disqualified. Don't submit the images as attachments. Instead link them from your TR Photo Gallery to your post. Or, use an image hosting site like www.photobucket.com or www.imageshack.com and copy and paste them into your post. The code will look something like: [IMG]http://i47.photobucket.com/albums/f198/CarmieJo/DSC_0303.jpg[/IMG
Contestants should give a detailed description on how long they have had their tank, where it is now, DIY jobs and problems they had in that time. They may also include an equipment and stocking list.
Entries must be submitted inside of the contest entry forum. Entries will be made in the form of a post. All posts/submissions are final, and cannot be edited or deleted once they have been submitted. (Some contests may allow follow up posts to add additional info.) Because of this it is important to make sure your entry is accurate before submitting it. Only the entrant and moderators can see the entry.
In the event a modification to your entry is needed, please contact a moderator. Your submissions can be updated, if the update is approved by a moderator.

Contest entries will be accepted until 12:00 a.m. (midnight) Eastern Time on the 14th of each month.
Before the polls are open for voting, the committee will narrow down the entries to 6 entries.
Those entries will then be submitted into a thread for everyone to vote.
The voted poll will be opened on the 18th of each month.
Voted polls will be closed on the last day of each month.
TR owners/moderators reserve the right to overrule all voting in the event that the results are in question.
The winner will be announced during the second podcast of the month and they will be acknowledged in that podcast’s thread.

All rules are subject to change, any changes will be posted here, or in the contest thread.
The winner of the tank of the month contest will receive:

Due to the fact that we had too few entries for the December contest we have rolled those entries over to the January contest. So, throw some tinsel on your tank and enter the January TOTM contest!
