I don't really see how that's possible, besides no one will even remember this.

Even if the budget goes up....we can still strive to stick to the initial budget and be proud that we did. No one has to spend the extra money. After thinking about it overnight....I wish I had voted for $50.00 if anything...yeah getting towards the end I might wish for the $150.00 to compete against some of the tanks as they stand now

...they're some amazing ideas when we have to get creative. That's a good amount of cash when dealing with a small tank......and it doesn't take us very far away from the initial budget. HOWEVER, the tanks can be done and done well with the first amount we were given..just check out some of the other build offs on different sites...it's a challenge, and that's the idea. It's easy if you have a large budget to make anything gorgeous...but when you're limited you spend wisely and have to plan

Yeah buddy I'm really curious how you're going to stick with the Hawaiian theme. That region has specific coral and fish not found anywhere else plus you can't export coral from Hawaii so I guess fish only?

In keeping with your theme, I thought maybe you could make this your central piece:

I think that if some of you spend $300 and some spent $450 my vote will take that into account for sure.

Contest was started at $300 so my 2 cents is to keep it at that now.
Next time around it can be made at a different cost.
The whole idea was to budget and by adding cash that defeats that purpose.
Also looks like you are all split on how much to add as your votes are all pretty even.
Looking forward to seeing the end results regardless on what you all decide to do.
