Top Ten
Details of background and water surface reflection are very beautiful.

A superb work!! It combines perfectly many different techniques to obtain a deep and natural underwater scene. I really like how you have used Fissidens fontanus above branches. It seems at the rear on the right side you need a bit more time to obtain a more mature aspect.
— Juan Puchades Rufino
Strong and detailed work!
The work with mosses is impressive. Good balance and open space. One small negative point is the excessive shadow on the left side.
Congratulations in my TOP10!
— Luca Galarraga
Good use of few plants to emphasize the aquascape and excellent use of the wood and rocks to create the layout. You have created nice depth in the tank and the Fissidens and moss really soften the aquascape. Great job!
