And our winner is:
# 6 Slim/Compact Zebra submitted by Ron...congrats!!!!!!!!!!

It was a close contest, thanks to all the participants. Also, thanks for all the voters.

For those of you that attended the MCA auction, you may have seen the bag of 2 Synodontis multipunctatus on the raffle table. The proceeds from that particular bag will go towards funding an award/prize for the online photo contest.
Unfortunately, Marty and I were both incredibly busy at the auction (and it was a last minute idea I came up with for the raffle) so we failed to announce it over the PA system.
Marty and I have some other ideas for promoting the photo contest and the online site in general, so stay tuned before the next auction.

BTW Congrats Ron.

Thanks guys. I'm surprised I won - there's quite a few nice fish/photos IMO. I figured someone would mention it was rigged - thanks Jeff.   ;)  :)

I think I'll sit the next one out since I won this one - looking forward to the next round of entries!

I didn't mean my previous statement in a cocky kind of way.

My photos are close to pure luck - I simply take enough that some of them turn out good and the remainder get deleted!
