    Looks wonderful. The foreground a bit too manicured for my taste, especially together with the wilder middle and background, but great nonetheless!

    I actually think that this scape could be really nice if only it was in a tank 50% smaller. the biggest issue being that the main focal point of the scape, the negative space at the lower right is just too far over to one side of the tank. Transitioning the foreground and mid-ground with a mediator species such as staurgyne or hygropholia would also served well to balance the heavy weight nature of the overpowering strap like mid-ground space. Could have done with a steeper sloped substrate too...

    Critic aside, it's the starts of a good foundation in scaping and I'm sure once you've learnt a bit more on plant health, composition and so on you'll be scaping with the best of them.

    thanks for your advice garuf. i agree with you in the point of a softer transition between The lb and ss. i haven t add some staurgyne cause i wanted to keep it as simple as possible with a small count of different species. just to Show up what can be possible with less and i wanted to keep clear lines in this layout as you can see at the hard transition between fore and midground by trimming too.

    @lee: thanks for your nice words :)
