| Judges Comments:: | |
| Birgit :: | I have never seen rotala wallichii growing that beautiful.Congratulations on the plants, and on the idea. Also the hygrophila as a midground plant pleases my eye. IŽd use a little more of it to link the ones on the left side with those on the right side. The boarder between the riccia and the hygrophila to the left is a little bit hard. Use the hygro to smoothen the crossover. |
| Jay Luto :: | Hygrophila on the left is forming nice carpet like effect. It reminds me of Stargrass with reddish flavor. Rotala Wallichii, although looks very healthy, is not creating the best background. It would present itself a lot better when placed in groups. Overwhelming color of the Wallichii has negative effect on the color of the fish which look washed out a bit. |
| Ghazanfar Ghori :: | Congratulations on growing rotala wallichi so successfully. However, the aquascape lacks depth. |
