Re: [GSAS-Member] HAP award request (draft)



Sorry for the confusion Anita.  My Hap post is a test run of how to document 
points obtained to receve a HAP award.  I listed plants I have grown and my 
tank specs as a sample.  It appears that my more detailed reply last night did 
not make it to the listserve so I will try again when I get home.

Okay, sorry, but I'm confused.  What are the aquarium specs about?  For instance, 
my largest tank is a newly set up 55 gal, and my best tank is a 20 gallon.  Does 
the fact that I don't have a 60 gallon with injectable CO2 leave me out of the 
contest?  Also, does someone come to my tank & inspect my tank, or do I have to 
dig up my best plants to bring them in?  And why are so many plants missing?  Etc.

Anyway, I'm confused.
