How the winner is decided

Every voter scores each aquascape on 5 criteria (1–10 each). Those scores give each voter's own ranking of the tanks: their 1st choice earns 5 points, 2nd earns 4, and so on down to 0. Tanks that a voter scored equally share the points.

The aquascape with the most ranking points wins. If two are level, the higher average score wins; if still level, the higher Creativity & Overall Impact average.
