Bright and eye-catching tank. The composition is a little weak, but I like the planned-for succession of combining both Riccia and Lilaeopsis on the bottom of the tank. When the Riccia gets overgrown, or too much of a bother, the Lilaeopsis is already there to replace it. While either the Boesemani rainbows or the tetra schools would be nice, I find their inclusion in the same tank a little jarring. Both in terms of color, also knowing what different environments they come from. When I went back to look for the last year's entry, I had a hard time identifying this tank, it had changed so much! The clue was the combination of Rainbows and tetras. There are many less Rainbows this year, that leads me to believe that conditions favor the tetras.

Nice looking tank with a very striking stand of Cryptocoryne in the front of the tank. Also some beautiful rainbowfish that seem at home in this garden. I'd suggest moving the hygro towards the back in a tighter bunch and smoothing out the riccia to blend with the foreground better. Very nice tank.
