Public Beta Test - Wikipedia for fish

[Blue World Aquariums]

Fish Wiki is an information source for aquarium fish, corals, and invertebrates. It’s a wiki with a twist. What makes this unique is that we actually reward contributors for their efforts! You can earn gift certificates to our store by submitting species profiles and photos.

Check it out here: Aquarium Wiki
We've extensively tested this addition, but is still under development and subject to improvement. You may use this thread (or the dedicated forum on our site) for any questions, comments, or suggestions.

Thanks for checking it out!

Hmmm.. That's really a very cool idea
Info on the fish by people who actually own and have personal knowledge of that fish.

I'm going to have to get the camera out and snap some pics and get writing up some stuff.. Lord knows I like rewards and gift certs!!!

Thanks Shelley. I think the incentives will be great for reefers who have a bit of free time and need help supporting their habit!

Check the rewards page here: Fish Species

Simple version: A good quality picture, completed stats profile, and a paragraph or two writeup earns you 7 points. 35 points gets you a $20 gift cert.

I imagine motivated individuals could crank out 3-4 per hour or maybe more?

You can also earn points by submitting parts of a whole eg. just picture, stats, or writeup

added another post to it yesterday. It looks really good and will be a great data base for everyone. Really easy and kind of fun to do (if your a fish nerd).
