Got to quickly browse the book on Sat at ADG....wow there are some stunning layouts this year! The top prize went to a tank with only 3 types of plants in it. Very simple, but also very nice.

Whats that red plant? Honestly I thought #1 would be something better.

Planting and layout skills are top notch. The red plant is Rotala nanjean. [which is usually green]

Blending of green and red is like a watercolor performance. This appearence may be the result of low resolution picture. I would like to have a closer look at the picture.

Thanks for posting this spy photo but I hope ADA does not sue.

BLending is directly proportional to the distance from the light..not that hard when we are talking about transitioning with 1 plant.

Mike, look at the undersides of the leaves, it's pinkish, so yes, it turns a bit red/pink.

Doesn't do anything for me, though I'm sure the layout is top notch and all. Just doesn't grab me...and I like the the natural style.
