Great biotope 'scape. One of the nicest I've seen in a long time.

Re: Malaysia,Johor State, Crypts's Biotope tank
I really like this tank. The contrast between the blue of the fish with the green crypts and brown leaves is just beautiful.

That is too awesome. I hope to try something like that once I get more runners from my blackwater emersed setup.

But the judges of AGA 2007 do not feel the same, this tank would have been worth being classified well in the category " biotope " of AGA, I think it's an error

Re: Malaysia,Johor State, Crypts's Biotope tank
I hate you!
Looks slightly crowded with the fish load, but I adore the set-up! Incredibly natural looking; simple, yet ornate and original enough to grab your attention! Nice job! Definitely a fan of this scape!
