Judges Comments::
Birgit ::You managed to produce a striking centerpiece. The plants look all healthy and show their greatest colours. The only thing I miss, is a crossover from front to background beyond the ludwigia. An additional plant, a piece of driftwood, or some additional stones could do a lot for the overall impression. I still love that tank though!
Jay Luto ::Great tank. Contrast between upper colorful portion and lower foreground is very catchy. Needs some plants to fill middground under the upper portion. Lobelia ?
Ghazanfar Ghori ::Good job! Once that javafern grows in - it'll offer a little more textural contrast. Also, that rock needs to be moved a little to the right and back.
