January Photo of the Month

Well hell, welcome to 2024 you all, Happy New Years.

I am back again this year to give you the first installment of the ever infamous SPCDA pic of the month.

I am sure there are some of you saying, “that we can’t get rid of the old gal, even after she breaks her tank down”……………lol. Fortunately, no one else wants to do this job, so here I am, still boring you to tears with these monthly duties 🙂🙂🙂🙂🙂.

This months winner is a new one to us all, Jeff Anderson. Congrats Jeff, and thanks for your pic ❤.

Bring on the pics for February, I am hoping for another year of 12 different winners. Pictures have to be from your tank, not to tough of a rule to follow, so lets have at another year 🙂🙂

December Photo of the Month

Our POTM winner this month is Randy Thereefer, with this pic of some furry acros. Congrats Randy!!!

I will get all this years winners to Joanne in the next month or so, so we can get the POTM prizes all figured out. Thanks to all who have sent in pics this year, some months have been rather sparse, but all in all, we got it figured out to where no one was a repeat winner, which is the way it should be.

Keep sending in the pics tho, some of us are only smart enuf to look at pics 🙂🙂🙂🙂. For me, not having a tank anymore, I find the pics pretty cool to look at just to see what everyone has.

Anyways, before I get too windy, enjoy the month and we will kick off a new POTM thing in January.
