    And add me as well, my arm was twisted by Slagter - I will use a 30L nano that I have running currently. Won't break it down completely but do a whole new rescape? If that is fine?

    LOL! I am Slagter on the other forums!! :amazed:

    That's cool, but you need to post progress. So If you empty the tank and redo all the things from scratch and then refill the tank with the old tank water, that will work just fine!!

    aaa ok then unfortunately gents i'm going to have to bow outa this one, my nano is going to be dismantled in a few weeks for petstops comp and that tanks not a nano. pity coulda tried my 70L but would never want to dimantle it, and theres alot more than 6 plant sp in the tank. oooo design is still viable lol for petstops comp i mean, i'll be using the ada soil for that tank. no more space for the nano and i did promise to dismantle it if i got the new tank lol, aaa the bargaing with the non fish obsessed folk in my life lol.

    Lol!!! Maybe split personality. I prefer the sound of that! Hahaha!!

    Sorry to hear that windfire. Pity, the more entries the bigger and better the competition.

    It is definitely not part of the petstop competition.

    Good Idea there... It's not one month guys... Comp runs until 26 November. That's 7 weeks. Almost 2 months. That's plenty of time for a tank to "grow in"...

    Ok I have one last question, okay actually its more than one lol!

    Anyway, are we allowed to know the judging criteria? Meaning, are you looking for the best looking Low tech tank? What will be more important, plants or scape? As I really want to enter, and I have a super Low tech idea!

    The judging will be based on all the criteria. The journal, the tank, the scape, hardscape, plants, etc... But tha main thing is that the best looking tank will win the main prize.
