livestock(including liverock) can be changed throughout the contest, sometimes coral dont work out and fish do not work out for the better or the way we hope so things inside the tank can be changed as you see fit...its your aquarium to own after all:P

remember though judges are going to be watching your every move so too many changes and the judges may see that as instability. too much swapping of livestock could be looked the same way.

our judges are going to be looking at your approach to the tank, how well the tank does and did you stick to your plan and goal hat you set out in the beginning

Hmm I may actually have to enter, could practice doing a tank with a sump and attempt to do all the plumbing on my own... Wait... If we have never plumbed anything in our life are we allowed to ask for help in some of the building?

I kind of like the idea of teams: especially where a novice is being helped along by a more experianced reefer. It might also be a really fun thing for parents and children to work on together on . . . or husbands and wives . . . Or siblings.

I would say no to teams the tanks are small enough to handle on our own I think (unless you would cut off your own hand with power tools in an attempt to plumb a tank....), but how about catagorys?
Newbie reefers (less then a year)
Experienced
Advanced

I know I dont stand a chance against even half the people who are newer then me lol
