This will be the thread for the photos and information regarding the JF Firecracker grow out contest. All pics needed for this contest must be posted here.
Contest notes
1. Entry fee is labeled with each potential contest frag, this covers your cost of the frag, transportation, a donation to MASC and puts $$ in the pool for the winner(s). Winner pot is whatever remains after cost of frag and donation with minimum pool being $30 for some of the higher priced frags this pool will be much higher based on minimum buy ins.
2. Frags will be cut two weeks before contest start and individually numbered. Once numbered, you'll randomly be assigned a number, and pickup your frag. There will be no cherry picking, all luck of the draw.
3. Each contestant must post a photo of their frag within 48hrs of contest start/time, or from when you receive your frag.
4. Each contestant must post a picture each month by the 10th.
5. All frags must remain on original plug until the end of the contest
6. Each contestant must post a final picture to be counted by the deadline of the Saturday before Reefed

8. Grow time will be from the delivery of frags at the 2017 Coral Extravaganza to Reefed.
9. If your frag melts, post up so we know you're out. Maybe the winner will frag you a head
10. If your frag comes off it's plug, you can re-attach, but you must post up additional picture once re-attached within 48 hours.
11. Frags can be moved within your tank at your discretion. Just be prepared to share what worked in the end.
