IMO Dates:

Start date: - Build thread has to be started by this day displaying empty tank or a tank in the process of being built, basically something showing the tank isn't full of water yet.

Threads must be updated at least twice monthly with pictures added at least once a month.

End Date: Tanks are judged accordingly

That's all you need, but that's just how I see it.
I see your point, but that's really not fair for the contestants who are literally starting from scratch. I'm not going to enter, but for example I have enough tanks, enough live rock and more than enough corals to have a pretty wicked little tank up running and cycled in about an hour.. Which isn't the scope of this contest. Setting time frames equals up a lot of things.
