Judges Comments::
Roger Miller I am not one for orange discus, but I can overlook that here. I really like the tall sweep of the C. balansae. It creates such a closed habitat for the lower plants and fish. Great depth and focus.
Luis Navarro Discus and plants can live together when the plant selection is correct I know many people who have many of this tanks and the open spaces in the front seem to work great for Discus the tall plants are a nice detail but I would rather see a opening in the middle or side.
Gianmarco Bertaccini Plants and fish well matched for this layout. Just needs more time to get this middle section to ‘wow’. The balansaes are beautiful. Nice tank!
Bartek Lipczynski Very nice left side showing how to make depth and mysterious atmosphere.
