Additional Information As the Name says, Aridane, is a town on the Island of La Palma, located in the Canary Islands (Spain).
This past 2021 they suffered a great natural catastrophe, due to the fact that one of their volcanoes entered into a long eruption (approximately 3 months in continuous activity). It dragged everything in its path leaving hardly anything, burying several towns as the great lava flow advanced.
This layout is a small tribute to the whole island. In it I wanted to recreate a devastated, gloomy image... but at the same time that the scene progressed, I was looking for the resurgence of nature; Making it synonymous with life itself, with all those people who suffered the loss of their homes, and now have had to overcome that moment.
In this aquarium the fish reflect the people, they come out of the darkness illuminated by a "ray of hope" that leads them towards the light fleeing from the storm.
Remember that "After the storm always comes calm"
I hope you like it and enjoy the work. See you soon.

A really brilliant implementation of an actually very simple and far too often seen topic.
To find the escape point here you just have to follow the fish.
The twilight that shines from the background bathes the scenery in an enchanting light.
It's actually a simple trick but I've never seen this effect so beautifully as here.
The design has very few pronounced lines most of which is left to the viewer. Vectors and a hypnotic pull towards the vanishing point only form in his mind.
A truly remarkable work I am very impressed.
Great perspective depth sense textures contrasts light and strong shadows... All ingredients to a spectacular Nature Aquarium.
Healthy plants very natural trimming and an amazing atmosphere explained almost poetically in the text.
Aquariums like that sustain me make me happy and fulfilled in my profession.
Thank you so much for this opportunity to evaluate such a beautiful work and to emerge in this scenario so close to Nature.
My sincere congratulations.
Also we can feel a great atmosphere with a smart use of a ray of light and very interesting lighting.
This tank deserves to be one of the winners of his category.
Makes me want to go inside and take a look. Stunning work and gorgeous layout.
The fine wood branches in this layout tend to give a natural scene and are meticulous work.
