Judges' Comments

A pleasant little scape. I think a white background would have been better for such a layout, as it can give a sense of open sky, which can expand the sense of space in a smaller sized aquarium. A white background would also match the substrate color better. Pretty decent rock work, but I find the planting overly restrained. Plants seem to be playing the game: the sand is lava and all the plants are hiding on the rock platform.
