Why? It had the entire full tank in it from what I can see? I could see the surface and both side glass reflections

@Stephen please put your entry back, it's a little bit of leg pulling and that's all.
I set this thread up here because there are no discussions rule allowed on the TOTM forum thread itself.
If you recall it was all to do with this aquarium entry below to tease @fr499y up over the rules.

This thread started as a bit of fun with your above 'entry', I found it amusing.
My reply was:-
In my view any discussions (on the forum) may give an entry an unfair advantage, which I do not want.
I had removed (cropped) the side reflections from my TOTM entry as it did not look good (I can't do anything about converging sides with the camera I used).
I looked at the original photo and thought I had algae on the sides, but no it was blurred reflections of the plants.
I have worked hard on my 120L aquarium over the past month and thought it was a decent entry for the July TOTM.
I know that your post was intended as a bit of fun.
The issue I have is that it was being discussed, which may give an unfair advantage.

My reply was:-
I have read the rule of "NO DISCUSSIONS!!" as meaning anywhere on the forum (whether my interpretation of the rule is right or wrong), hopefully @fr499y can confirm the rule of "NO DISCUSSIONS!!".Martinspuddle wrote: ↑Sat Jul 31, 2021 8:50 am I set this thread up here because there are no discussions rule allowed on the TOTM forum thread itself.

Re-enter your aquarium @Stephen or I posted the worst aquarium you've ever seen.

No, there's no discussions in the actual competition thread, or this thread would have been stopped as soon as it was started.....
Isn't it a shame we can't read how we listen?
