As I said before, a fish only tank, or a FOWLR tank can not compete with a reef tank. Not everyone has a reef tank. I have both, and would enter both if I could.

Well, you did ask to be convinced.

A reef tank can compete with a FOWLR or even a FO (store bought decorations)......Its an aquascaping contest, not a who has the best/most corals.

What DRO said .

And in order to convince me I'll need @least 5 different entries in each catagory.

That means

5 FOWLR
5 Reef
5 FO

that's a minimum of 15 entries from you SW people . I'd love nothing more than to be able to divide them up in that manner, but unless I get the entries I have to put them all together.
I will be making a specific clause in the AquaScapeing contest rules stating that if there are a minimum of 5 entries for reef, and 5 entries for FOWLR/FO the two will be divided.

which for those who know me, and how I really feel about the whole thing, feel that while yes it would be nice to judge them differently, they can also be judged together. The contest isn't about compairing one against the rest. It's about considering each tank on it's own.

Like I said...get me the entries, talk the contest up, and I'm willing to make them 2 catagories .
