2024 Reef Themed PUMPKIN CARVING CONTEST Sponsored by TankStop!!! Two Prizes, and Too Much Fun!!!

[Fish Think Pink]

Here is fish with sea grass carved pumpkin.

The top and bottom of this pumpkin are sunken in towards each other, so there isn't anyway I can get a light inside. Maybe I'll get a pity vote (or not... I feel like a kindergartener would have done better)

Happy Halloween, reefers! This is your last chance to join the pumpkin madness! Whether it’s your best work something you managed to mangle out for the effort, we want to see it—no tricks, all treats!

Here's mine. Didn't get to spend a much time on it a last year... just rushed to finish before Halloween. My 3 year old dishes picked what to carve, hopefully she picked good! Unlit pic the model is in the background!

My entry, dedicated to our beloved cat Andy, who after almost 19 years was sadly put down just this evening. Rest in peace, little buddy, we love you always and will never forget you!

Happy Halloween Reef2Reef!

I'm just blown away by some of the entries here! Some people have some real talent, and I'm not one of them ;-)

Keep 'em coming, ghouls and gals!

Happy Halloween everyone!

Terrors of the Deep.

I carved while waiting for trick or treaters that NEVER CAME.

The internet requires its cat tax!

Better late than never.

Something I’m sure a lot of us are familiar with. Getting that small emerald crab to eat your bubble algae, just to watch it ignore your bubble algae.

@AlyciaMarie when will the participants get badges?

I’m really excited because we be getting Badges, but I am scared that most people will get a “Participation” badge while the winner gets a special winner badge. I am ok with the winning badge but I am deeply hopeful that everyone else gets an “I carved a loser pumpkin” badge, it just seems more honest to me.

That would be hilarious! Ultimate participation prize, i would sport that looser badge with pride!

Also, @AlyciaMarie, this has been a super fun thread
