Amazing tank, but in the last two pics the overgrowth has killed the real beauty of this tank

Thanks a lot Sushant for the honest review. Even I feel the same the over growth has killed the beauty of the driftwood. But as it is summer I am not trimming. I will start trimming and making it better after summer :D
