#641: 324L Paludarium Mysterious islands

Comments

I like this tank! It does not have the finesse of a few of the others that I have ranked highly but it has an authenticity that I really appreciate. You can tell that this tank has grown in. The plants in the water section have GROWN there not simply been placed there for a photo shoot. Well done! Likewise while perhaps not as carefully groomed as some I love the wild slightly over-grown but healthy look of the plants. I believe this is a paludarium that LIVES in this makers home and is part of the family. Well done!

I love the use of the lotus in the middle it really draws the eyes deep into the scape creating depth.
