I think these tanks are great. Each one of them has an owner who has put great effort into creating them and to openly criticise the end result of everyone's hard work is a shame. I personally believe it would've been better to keep this opinion to yourself and allow the entrants the enjoyment of the competition without being put down.This Old Spouse said:I may be a snob of sorts, but none of these tanks really jumped off the screen for me. I went back a few months and looked at the winners, and none of these compare.
Again, I really don't want to start a poop storm. These are indeed good tanks, but compared to ones in the past, I don't think they're great tanks, IMHO. I'm not criticizing any of these fishkeepers, just making a blanket statement. We all work hard on our tanks and take great care with them, otherwise we wouldn't be on this forum. Not putting anyone down, just making an observation. That said, let's drop it.David J said:I think these tanks are great.

Well that's just funny, because I voted for yours.Thedoctor said:I hesitated putting that down, but I'm just really disappointed. I did vote for the one that appealed to me most. Don't want to start a poop storm. Really.
While I agree that my entry (9) falls far below the standards of previous winners - I don't care, because it's the tank I've got with the little time I have to spend on it and I enjoy watching it when I do get the chance.
If you were so disappointed why did you not enter yours? And if you already have done and won; congratulations but consider that a lot of people wouldn't have voted for yours but had the good grace not to openly reject it.
