This way I made small sketches with the help of my daughter where we got to the result, an inside view of a cave contemplating the external forest. It has excessive use of shadows to highlight its planes and larger elements from the foreground to the third plane, giving it more impact to the final work.

I was immediately struck by the harmony of the curved shapes of the furnishings and the reflections in this composition. Excellent use of aquatic plants. Their saturated colors obtained from their perfect condition make it a true work of art.

The prune technique is essential to maintain this dense layout. That require a lot of effort to keep all plants grow rate simultaneously. The layout arrangement and color combination is well balance. If have to critic, the shadow area of left hand branch seems plant coverage not mature and this shadow area have to improve.

A classic structure with driftwoods, stones and different kinds of plants to create this dream world, ellent work. The arrangement of animal I is not very well, could be better. excellent

This montage impressed me at first glance... It was even more impressive when I took a closer look at the montage, where each plant and hardscape was carefully positioned without exaggeration. I only don't liked the left trunks got a little bit loaded.

Comments from Flair Wang

This tank uses only water plants with small leaf. By using plants with different color to create this beautiful work, the layout is not boring but vivid. This scaper must has excellent aquascaping skill.
