I love the lotus and the Pistia Stratiotes.
I find the layout too busy and unorganized. |

J'aime le lotus et le Pistia Stratiotes. Je trouve le layout trop chargé et désorganisé. |

I like the Dutch influence to this aquascape. The moss covered wood works very well to add interest and the small stems in the midground look great. I would have considered having the red Rotala background stems filling up more space to the left and right and pruned into a V-shape, accentuating the lily as a focal point. Well done. |

J'aime l'influence hollandaise de ce paysage. Le bois recouvert de mousse apporte un vrai plus et les petite plantes à tiges au plan intermédiaire sont superbes. J'aurais préféré que les Rotala rouges en arrière plan prennent plus d'espace à droite comme à gauche puis soient taillées en "V", accentuant la focalisation du regard sur le nymphea. Bien joué. |

When looking at this tank, you feel an impressive and powerfull serenity. Of course, the plants are very strong and massive, but it doesn't matter, because volumes are well controlled. Fishes are healthy, so are the shrimps. The aquascaper understood well that it's not necessary to overfill this tank. It's always around the limit, but the author never take the "too much option". A very nice work. |

Il se dégage de ce bac une impression de sérénité qui force le respect. Certes, la végétation est riche, mais elle ne nuit pas aux volumes qui sont bien mis en évidence.
Les poissons sont en pleine forme ainsi que les caridines. L'auteur a bien compris là aussi qu'il ne fallait pas surcharger, et il arrive toujours à ne pas franchir la limite, même si parfois il la frôle. Bravo, du très bon travail. |
