Judges Comments::
Roger Miller A good presentation, but one where the two green mounds overwhelm other features of the aquascape
Luis Navarro I enjoy this tank a lot I wish I knew the dimensions but by looking at the liter capacity is at list 120 cm the aquacape is a good example of a two section design were the use of space was well thought the plants conditions is also very good and the biolaod just rigth.
Gianmarco Bertaccini I just love ‘twin island’ layouts. The aquarist had put a lot of effort to bring out this layout in the perfect timing of the plants. The wallichiis are perfect as an eye-catcher and the balance of the plants colour are perfect too. This tank just lacks a more strong transiction from the front to the back, but in overall the balance of the islands are very pleasent to me. That surface ‘mirror’ image is just astonishing!!
Bartek Lipczynski Very effective use of space. Excellent plant condition. In my opinion grouping of plants in front left corner is missing in order to create depth and symmetrical balance between right & left side of tank.
