Roger Miller Masterful work
Luis Navarro Everybody knows who this tank belongs to and I have also seen most of his work thanks to the internet so all I can say is that Oliver have the eye for the" nature aquarium" and like most artist his work was never enough for him so he went to learn form Mr. Amano and I am looking forward to see how is he going to improve his work the tank is in exellent condition and the plant selection is not only harmonious but just right congratulations!
Gianmarco Bertaccini This is the type of aquascape that simply gets inside and doesn´t come out of your brain easily. It is simply gorgeous!! Stem plant arrengement is beautiful with it´s densyness and position within the tank. The foreground just look like one that nature itself has done it. The fish chosen seems to match the aquascape with perfection and thus provide an image that they couldn´t be more happier to have this tank as their home. It´s nearly impossible not to pronounce some ‘wows’ when looking to this tank. Brilliant!!!
Bartek Lipczynski Very good professional job. I can't find any weaknesses.
