2010 RTC Growing Contest

[Diskboy12]

Me and a few other members have decided to see who can raise there RTCs to 2' first. This contest will require weekly updates on size, what you are feeding, tank size/pond size, and a picture of the RTC of course. Whoever gets to 2' first will be named "2010 RTC Growing Contest Champion" with 2x runner up spots. Prize? Infinite glory of knowing you have the best way of growing big RTCs.

Contestees are:

Diskboy12 (Me)
Mqktandy
Deep Blue Sea
and lastly
Dragonsong
