Judges' Comments
Consider blunting the hard cuts of the spider wood with a dremel or lopping sheers. The straight cuts are distracting. Very well put together otherwise!
— David M Bono
Nice work on the water portion and enhances the interest below the waterline. The ends of the wood should be more tapered to look more natural instead of blunt ends. Also some of the plants - like the adansonii - will get very wild very quickly so the tank will be overwhelmed soon!
