Judges' Comments
Despite the small size of this aquarium, you’ve managed to create an impressive sense of depth. Well done! I also like the interplay of light and shadow you’ve created, which looks very realistic
— Gloria Ciriello
The choice of aquatic plants is excellent, especially for such a small tank where the selection of materials and aquatic plants is very limited, so the result of this aquascape is quit impressive.
