This is obviously a well maintained sparkling tank. It is also impaccably presented. However for a good Iwagumi design the rocks must be placed in strong relationship to each other. In this tank they are too regularly spaced with the front row almost looking lined up. The very different color of the right rear stone and the fact that it leads the eye out of the tank is also unfortunate. Finally while I love Endler's there are just too many of them in this tank. It looks like a swarm rather than a school.

This is layout really is! Iwagumi is hard to judge because you need to knoww and understand the concept. Now just bear with me what if you rock group on the right side was a little more isolated from the left and the substrate in the back was higher to to add more depth? I'm just giving you an idea beacause I like you work so much! this plus maybe less fish??
no matter what I think you did an excellent job!
