Judges Comments::
Roger Miller This is a beautifully colored aquascape that needs a little more organization. The right side is out of proportion (large) and detracts from the overall impression.
Luis Navarro aquascaping a 55 gallon tank is hard so try to have heavier groups of plants close to the back and blend things down close to the front you can also benefit of adititonal depth if the plants in the back are closer to the surfece but not touching it.
Gianmarco Bertaccini Plants show health, but needs to improve layout techniques.
Bartek Lipczynski Promising arrangement - I would work a bit more on creating more depth.
