Stunning! Of all the entries in this category this is the one I would most want in my home. Some of the trimming is a little severe especially on the left side. Aside from that bravo.

Vibrant healthy tank but it is a bit blocky looking. The stem plants in the back could also use some shaping.

Excellent use of rock and wood in the front to midground of this layout. The use of tenellus HC and helferi in exceptional.

The stems in the background create a different text and feel from the brilliant foreground preventing continuity.

Beautiful! I love the use of the rock and wood in this tank. The foreground and midground are very nicely done but the Rotala vietnam and wallichii need to be shaped to really make this tank stand out. As is it seems like they were added as an afterthought.
