Hardscape of this layout is very beautiful with a very deep perspective. its will be more better if creator take care to place the aquatic plants in better situation.

The aquarium has a clear intention in structure. I had wanted an aquarium more evolved in its development so that I can assess in its fullness. Good work in the absence of maturation.

Very creative use of the hardscape in creating the layout and nice blend of plants to accent the strong layout. The layout is too symmetrical and the small wood along the back does not add to the aquascape unfortunately. Nice job!

Inspiered on the Mixteco River of my home town region, with a soft touch of the amazon white sand rivers, this layout was made to interpretated the first season of rain after the long hot months with lack of water, at the point of the first rains, the river starts a change into beauty, what was dry and dark brown slowly starts to turn in to live green colors, diferent terrestrail moss and palustres plants and for sure aquatic plants make there way back to enhance the river with live colors. This is the Season one of the Mixteco river and The coming of the rain.
