CAPA 2009 Aquascaping Contest Results

The aquascaping contest results season is here, and hot on the heels of the IAPLC top 27 video is the results from CAPA, a French aquascaping contest (not quite sure what the acronym stands for, but I'd guess one of the A's is aquascaping). There are some repeats from the IAPLC 2009 top 27 results, but there are also some very nice tanks that we haven't seen yet (like the one above, I love the depth!). Like the AGA aquascaping contest, the CAPA is divided by tank size, so each class has a set of winners. You can view the top 3 of all classes, the Under 70L category, the 70-250L category, and the Over 250L category. Plenty of great aquascapes to spark your imagination!

APC Tank of the Year Contest Announced

Aquatic Plant Central has recently announced a brand new 2010 Tank of the Year contest, complete with some pretty substantial cash prizes ($350 for first place). The contest is open until January 31, 2010, so you have plenty of time to plan, set up, and photograph an aquascaped tank, even from scratch. Aquariums will be judged on originality, cleanliness, difficulty, and composition along with bonus points awarded to a popular vote winner. This sounds like an awesome opportunity to start from scratch and get a brand new aquascape going. The 46 gallon is looking a bit tired after the move...
