| Judges Comments:: | |
| Roger Miller | This aquarium contains 18 different plant species in a small volume. It might create a better impression with fewer species. I think the wood would look better without attached plants. This tank may be too small to keep good angels. |
| Luis Navarro | I like the layout the plants need to be trimmed more so they can look more bushy and make the two sides more pleasing to the eye also the substrate can be more leveled in the front good job. |
| Gianmarco Bertaccini | A
tank that needs more time to get in shape and ready for layout prunning.
It´s on the right way. I would take that ‘Madagascarian’
plant off the layout, cause is too big. Or move it to the back. (all these Aponogetons are found in Madagascar: boivinianus, ulvaceus, bernierianus, capuronii, cordatus, decaryi, longiplumosus, tenuispicatus, and obviously, the madagascariensis) |
| Bartek Lipczynski | Very nice good balanced composition. |
