AGA International Aquascaping Competition
If you have a nice aquarium but don't fancy entering a competition like Ilford's where the judges come round your house then this is for you. A fee of $5.00 lets you enter a scanned or digital photo of your tank. There is a gallery of past entries - some are very good.

logoA brand new site that sets out to provide a whole lot of useful information for fish keepers including a "find a fish" facility that will help you locate a particular species in a dealers tank near you.
