Nice. The lone narrow piece of dw with the moss on it looks kind of out of place. I really like the rest.

Setup looks absolutely outstanding...just wish the fish were more visible. I know its pretty generic, but cardinals would look quite nice with the setup.

I like it! Very nice scape!
It would even be better if you could make the skimmer on the right less visible, could'nt you move it behind the wood on the left?

Beautiful triangular layout! I love the sense of space. Agree with others that that "finger" of driftwood sticking out in the back disrupts the sense of flow in the scape. Perhaps you can turn that piece of wood so that it curves downwards?

I'd love to see this tank in some months. To me it has very good potential.

very nice and natural looking. I agree with barn owl, move the equipment to the left and the thin piece of wood with the moss should be sloped twards the gravel like the other wood. a school of rummies would compliment the galaxies.
