His suggestion to get a Japanese hand saw is a good one, if anyone hasn't used one give it a try sometime they're different and much better for small detail work. They cut on the pull instead of the push so they are thinner but stay straight by physics. ✌️

You know what? I like it. I would give a name for this; Less is more. Yes, it is different and hey the fish has room to swim in not only picturesque design but something simple yet it's pretty in its own simplicity. It's good to see sometimes a different idea kind of eccentric and unusual from the norm we used to. No need for more words to describe it cause like the tank it's simple but it works. No more words are needed. Thanks, Fabian for a little something special! Thumbs up to you! OK OK, Tommy gets a thumbs up too cause he was such a good helper. 👍👍

The ranking does not really matter for me. What matters is the inspiration such a creation can give to other aquascapers, and that can not be taken away. That's why contests are good in my opinion. I don't know what happened to that layout, really, but we love this one. 💚
