Sorin Tuta Bucharest, Romania

Comments

Very pretty tank with good use of color. Pleasing use of diagonal lines in some places. Nice job!
— Karen Randall
Your plants are haelthy and the tank is clean! I would like to suggest you to work on your trimming technique to get the best of the stem plants as well as the composition of your design.
— Luis Navarro
I am not sure that I agree that the name is appropriate. I find the layout too complex and with way too many species of plants.
