Yeah I just got a lil botherd why we cant figure out anyting here, it kinda sad, but hopefully there will be a person in charge of all this, wether it be me or whomever and we can get a lil soemthing setup so we can see peoples tanks.
Okay Lee... Tag! You're it! Now choose your committee and keep us updated.
Just to clarify, the objective of the BoD in all of this isn't to make a selection on who we think can best do the job; its for the job to just get done. Anyone can make it happen... all you need to do is start

I've been out of the loop for a week with all sorts of newborns but am still willing to help out in any manner or form. Pm sent to our coordinator Lee .
.I'd be glad to help with writing, proofreading, etc.
Here's what I would envision for a write-up:
1. History
a. inspiration of this tank
b. timeline for current set up
c. mistakes made along the way (and what was done to rectify them)
d. what might have been learned by the creator of this tank
2. Bio of the *Tank Master* (This would be something similar to *Notes About the Author* on a book cover)
a. introduced to the hobby, how?
b. brief personal info (age, gender, occupation, etc.
c. how long in the hobby
d. other interests
e. whatever anyone is willing to share ~ I realize some would be more private than others.
3. Contents of the Tank
a. substrate
b. corals
c. inverts
d. fish
e. what worked and what didn't
f. anything unique, rare or special
3. Specs
a. dimensions
b. gallons
c. glass/acrylic
d. etc.
4. Equipment
a. filtration & filtration media
b. lights
c. sump(s)
d. refugiums
e. etc. (whatever you guys throw in there ~ I'm new to this)
5. Innovations & Upgrades
a. DIY
b. brainstorms
c. inventions
6. Maintenance
a. water changes/top-offs
b. dosing/additives
c. cleaning
d. monitoring
e. testing
------------------------------------------
That's pretty incomplete and not well thought out, but you get the idea.
If I were a newcomer opening the webpage for the first time and saw a banner with *Featured Tank Of The Month (or Quarter)*</em>, I'd want to know everything about that *wowzer tank* and how I might be able to reproduce something similar.
Just the ramblings of a noob. Let me know if ya'll need any secretarial help.
