Entry's grades

"Excellent work! high impact and very balance design. The forest tree style is nothing new but the technique is almost perfect. This tank has a very well plan layout, a perfect sense of depth and the author manage to create the wabi-sabi feeling to the observer. The author masters the aquascaping technic, therefore I would encourage him to evolve in search of an original idea to create his own style for the coming layouts! I will be following him!"

"The curved hardscape made this typical forest layout become a very attractive forest, its can liking us to the feeling of under water world. Its may more balance if the left side not too much dark."

- Tran Hoang Long

"It's a very ambitious work that gives a strong sense of nature. My suggestion is that all upper part of the driftwood is thin,so if you thicken the upper part of the driftwood on the left,you should get more depth."

"Precioso layout, con una profundidad muy bien conseguida teniendo en cuenta la medida, como comentario unicamente apuntar que me habria gustado ver menos sombras en la parte frontal, pero es un excelente trabajo con un aspecto muy natural. Enhorabuena!!"

"Una joya en miniatura, una recreación de un alto valor cualitativo de un no tan original forest-scape. Nivel técnico sobresaliente, brillante elección del plantado, y equilibrio en toda la estructura obteniendo una buena tridimensionalidad. Un acuario top a nivel mundial. Quizás sea mejorable la elección de la fauna para obtener un mejor contraste en la foto final."
