For July end of month voting
I'd like to nominate
vincentwugwg
for monster fishkeeper gold. He has more than one tank over 2500 gallons to house his unbelievable collection of rare fish. I feel he goes above and beyond to provide the necessary space true monster fish need to reach their full potential. Vincent is an active member and respected by many. He shares updates of his tanks and fish on an almost daily basis. It's really hard for me to believe he has not been nominated much sooner. Hope to have the support from staff and notable members...thanks

I was planning to nominate Vince for this in July LOL! I had been PM'ing him to figure out what exactly his tank setups are like in order to appropriately nominate him.
Since this was posted so late in June however, I'm still going to leave this open for July end of the month voting (as if we actually need it lol)
HOWEVER, since Vince has SO MANY large tanks, just one award doesn't truly recognize what he has sufficienly as well. Vince's current list of tanks is as follows:
4000 is 19ftx8ftx3.5ft
3000 is 19ftx6ftx3.5ft
1500 is 10ftx4ftx5ft
1380 is 15ftx4ftx3ft
1300 is 10ftx5ftx3.5ft
1000 gallon 8ftx4ftx4ft
1000 gallon bowfront 10ft x 2.5ft x 6ft
980 gallon 8ftx6ftx33in
900 gallon 10ft x 4ft x 3f
And many others I'm sure. This man's smallest tank that he saw fit to tell me about is larger than most member's largest tank. That is insane!
Under the current rule structure, I don't give out more than two instances of each Monster Fish Keeper award of each level (gold, silver, bronze), but under the rules, Vince certainly meets these requirements. His 4000 and 3000 are each worthy of a gold; his 1500 is worthy of a silver, and his 1380, 1300 and 1000 qualify for a second silver. His 980 qualifies for a bronze, and the 900 combined with the 1000 bowfront qualifies him for a second bronze.
If the members of this site support this nomination, I will be thrilled to issue these awards to Vince

Vince has taken the hobby to such a level as to force me to change the way the award system works. I've removed the two tank award limit and I will give him his third gold award, as he rightfully deserves.
