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. -Paul On Tue, 15 Mar 2005, A JACOBSON wrote: > 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?
