Hi !
We have a first contest on Ukrainian forum and it's been a lot of talking about different tanks but i really like to hear your opinion about this, if its possible.
Thank you all!

You've got some nice entries there! I like the second and fourth ones. The first one has a nice hardscape, but it looks like the foreground was just planted. When it grows in, it could be nice. The 3rd one looks interesting, but there's just too much going on in there.

2nd one looks best to me.

Third one would have been so great if it wasn't so crammed in - you can see some of the front bushes, is it micranthemoides? are just looking mashed to the front glass.

Yes,Hemianthus micranthemoides .
What do you think about the light stone on the right front?
To me is not look like right shape or place.(2nd one)

i don't know much about this but the crammed one also has too many fish going in all different locations, what are they? guppies? if it was a group of fish it could look more organized...second one is really nice, last one is pretty good too. and just like Cris said, the first one could be nice eventually

Tastes differ. Even Amano liked that kind in his younger days. E.g., here is one from his first book, p. 18. To my eye it is every bit as busy as the third one above.
