#94: 200L Aquatic Garden Green Dream

Marne Campos Campinas, Brazil

Comments

Attractive tank. The Alternanthera looks like a bit of an afterthought though.
— Karen Randall
Although the sweeping wood arrangement and photography was well done the plant groupings in the background are a bit messy. They should be allowed to grow and then pruned at a slightly higher level to look more bushy and also hide the heater currently visible in the background.
