Thumbs up [VOTE NOW!!] “the aquatic view through my own eyes…” - AFC photo competition.

AROWANA FANATICS CLUB EVENT: “The aquatic view through my own eyes…”
Submission closed - as of 20th Dec 2015 2359Hrs


Why is Arofanatics Club conducting this event?


Fundamentally, we hope to spruce up the interest and rekindle the hobby that we're in love with/ or once loved or even some says poisoned with. (Maybe the poison part - its true, for which it runs in the blood), haha!

Anyway if you are an AF member, you know for yourself why you are one.
  • Do you recall the times where you duly and promptly do your water-change for your tank without fail? (Considering that you don't even do any house-work?)
  • Do you remember the days where you were overseas, but deep-down you were worried about the well-being of your fishes?
  • Do you have the same encounter as me that you toss around the bed and cant sleep so you will decide to spend some time observing your fish tank?
  • At times where you are so stressed at work, but then when you're back as home, just by looking at the fishes swimming, that small action lifted your mood?
  • Have you ever plan to install IP cameras, (not to spy what your maid is doing at home), but your fishes?
  • Do you have the always-have-to-find-fish-to-bag syndrome when you visit LFS and "backside-get-itchy" syndrome?
  • Do you run random thoughts through your mind on topics like how to continuously improve the setup / how to achieve good water?
  • Making research and considered yourself studying harder than your then GCE O' levels chemistry , to understand the water chemistry of fish keeping, terms like nitrates, nitrite etc?
  • Taking the bold step, even to extend of doing autopsy of your beloved fishes when they were fallen; to know what went wrong exactly...

The list is not exhaustive, it is just some questions that flashed across my mind when I am writing this event introduction... I am sure there are all sorts of funny questions there will pop up for you... so honestly just answer them...

Personally, I like these 2 internet acronym, GPGT and SIC. What is that? some would asked.... ; it is Got Picture Got Talk and Sharing Is Caring. In this season of sharing, it is time to "show-hand / show-case" your collection and spread some loves. (or poison). Often as said, a picture will tells a thousand words, so do whip out your camera or smart phone camera function... snap some good pictures which made an impression or at least you are impressed with , do send them in to share with us, it is a good platform to see how impressive the work can get and how creative our fellow members are!

Good Luck and explore your creativity both on your photo and caption!
