Featured Tank tour sign up thread

@SupraSaltyReefer maybe you might have thoughts on how we could look into getting something like this as a option or making a tank features a thing. I think there are a few utubers that do things like this I've found intresting.

I'm not really certain what options there are in terms of technology; equipment or something like a zoom call that would make a video tour possible with decent quality.

I haven’t really put much thought into another Tank of the Month thread. We used to have a Tank of the Month but it eventually died down since people get busy and don’t have time to write up a summary of their tank when you can just look at their Tank Journal. Previous post here: TOFTM

As for recording the tank tours I believe we didn’t want to so that it would drive in person attendance to the tour itself.

Virtual tank tours could possibly be considered in the future, but that would take a lot of effort in recording and editing the videos then posting on to YouTube. I don’t think it would really be that beneficial in driving engagement to our BAR website. Usually in the Reef & Chill virtual chats we talk about and show off our tanks anyways so maybe we can have a Tank Spotlight during the Reef & Chill sessions for people that are really interested in members tanks.

Yea I'm totally not implying a whole virtual tour. Only in those cases where someone is kinda isolate by location from other memebers making including them in person tank tour largely impractical ( also intended to taking the place of a in person tour/ social).

However I think pairing it with the reef talk and chill session would be a pretty cool option if it could be added into it x member will show off his step up come join us etc seems simple enough I think.

I wouldn't want to make a chore out of it either like saying this is a monthly feature type thing.

Not everyone updates their journals with regularity. Some not even once or twice a year.

We can definitely chat more on the subject and come up with some workable options.
