2004 Aquabotanic Aquascaping Contest --Now Open for Entries!

[tsunami]

The 2004 Aquabotanic Aquascaping Contest is now open for entries! Are you preparing for this year's AGA contest and need some feedback on your layout from accomplished aquascapers? Are you just starting to learn about the aquascaping aspect of the hobby and need some guidance? Do you just have a healthy planted aquarium you just want to show everyone? Seasoned veteran or eager neophyte, plant collector or hard core minimalist, Nature Aquarium Style or Dutch Style or even no style...

Enter the Aquabotanic Aquascaping contest!

Last year, we had over 30 entries from all over the world including Australia, Turkey, Germany, Singapore, Portugal, USA, and more. Aquascapes ranged from miniscule 5 gallon "bonsai"
tanks to 100+ gallons. From experienced aquascapers that went on to achieve high rankings in the
ADA and AGA to beginners entering their first contest ever.

This year's judge line up will be:

1. Bartek Lipczynski
2. Roger Miller
3. Gianmarco Bertaccini
4. Luis Navarro

Contest starts: February 05, 2004
Contest ends: May 1, 2004
Cost: FREE
Prize: First place prize is a 12 gallon nano cube aquarium complete with filter and 24w 6500K power compact bulb! For those outside the USA, 100 dollars!
All entries have the possibility of being published in FAMA magazine

Tsu!! Welcome aboard!! What are you working with? Small tank at school or the ones at home? Post some pics!!

Perhaps I'll enter a couple of tanks, just to show some African Cichlid tanks with plants in them. I certainly cannot match up to some of the masters of plants, but I'm pleased with how things look, in a very natural way.

Fogelhund, please do enter some of your planted African Cichlid tank! It's possible that we might even get an entry from Italy with a planted African Cichlid tank, too. We'll see.

Hi, Cichlids! How are you? I'm working with the small tank at home. Thinking about tank(s). I may add a second, but then again I still do need to buy a good digital camera.
