Whoa whoa! I have ZERO part in the management and control of this contest... Once was enough.

So christy, Livestock is part of the budget for the limited budget tanks? Are you gonna go based on actual cost?

Also, other than Best Tank for each of the 4 categories, are there going to be prizes for anything else? "Best (insert whatever you think would be a cool idea)"

Well I was going to see if I could rustle up more prizes. I wasn't really sure how to do the categories as if we go with these 4 we already have to split the dough 4 ways which, depending on the number of entries, might make for not much of a gift certificate.

I was hoping for a "best tank thread" prize and "best theme" prize or something like that.

As for the livestock, yeah I'd kind of like to keep it on budget. You see for me, I'm not much of a DIY/equipment type so I like to see what people can do on a "smaller" budget. I know its going to be a bit of a headache having a budget for livestock but I like to think I've made it fairly simple. Likely it won't be that simple. Then again if people don't like that idea, they can go for the unlimited budget and we can get rid of the other categories. For me I'm more interested in seeing what people can do with a limited amount of money

Oh Sarah may have been thanking you for putting together the rules that I plagiarized from the last contest. I thank you for that too

Excellent. I will have to crunch some numbers but I should be in the custom with a budget category.

Just to be clear, if I buy glass or acrylic for a custom sized tank that is not part of the budget? If I decide to go nuts and build a titanium and carbon fiber stand (not that I plan to do that; even though that would be cool) then that is not part of the budget?
