I was wondering to give everyone a fair chance of winning etc..

That the people who won for that month were not allowed to enter for the following month?

We have so many talented people taking stunning pics of fish and tanks, i just thought it might be fairer for everyone?

What's everyones thoughts?

I think even the winners should be able to enter again....I only have a problem with pics being added that are not of your OWN tanks or OWN fish ....I feel anyone can take a good pic of someone elses hard work...but thats me

I agree about the tanks, but not the fish. Taking a great pic of a fish takes talent I think. The talent in a pic of a fishtank comes from aquascaping it yourself, not from getting the shot, so I don't think people should enter pics of tanks that aren't their own.

I respectfully disagree...its just as easy to take a pic of someone else's beautiful fish baby as it is there tank..especially if you like the fish..although it might take 100 pics to get a good one of that fish, its still no competition or hard work none the less...but again, thats my opinion and you cant make it ok for one and not the other that would be unfair

I'm just saying.... the person who owns the fish didn't make the fish look like that. It's just how it looks. But the tank required lots of planning and work to make it look as it is.

It was just a thought or idea, i know most other forums don't allow winners to enter the following month after a win.

I agree you should only enter your own tanks and fish, but for those with only one fish tank or fish it seems a bit unfair? But then thats another topic and discussion entirely and i don't want to go there!

As i said it was just a thought, maybe Mike could do a poll?
