Just a reminder that the deadline for the contest is swiftly approaching. On another thought, if I am the only one who enters, I will win both tanks! So, never mind this reminder...

Final reminder -- please submit your entries by midnight tonight. There will be no extensions. I won't say how many have already been submitted, but your odds of winning right now are still very good. You can't win without sending in a photo. Remember, GWAPA's contest is about learning and getting feedback.

Damn I was really looking forward to entering this contest but I've been way too busy this year.

I did make it to the December meeting to here any talk about the contest and although I can see the winner, I have no idea who the tank(s) belong. Is there any way we can list who's, who?
Sincerely,
Tim

2012 Aquascaping Contest and Genius Table

Post by turfboss »

Don't forget the Aquarium Beautiful Contest at AquaMania - your chance to show off all those Aquascaping skills and tanks :D

Also, Matt Quinn is looking for some volunteers to man the Genius Table at AquaMania - he needs a couple of folks who would be willing to volunteer a couple of hours of time to be present at the table to answer questions about plants for the tanks and the fish that go well with planted tanks. Send Matt (DogofWar) a message to let him know you can help - or let Arlene or Cristy or me know and we will pass that on.
