#50: 130L Aquatic Garden Experiment with care

Andrea Perotti Somma Lombardo, Italy

Comments

Your basic rockwork isn't bad though I would replace the large one on the right with a stone with character more in keeping with the others. However the plants have completely overgrown most of your hardscape. You need either stronger hardscape or lighter plants that allow the rockwork to show.

A nice start to your tank. The plants need to be pruned as they now over power the your hardscape. Add some different stem plants with more color to the back of the tank.
