In the end, I was left with the impression that the tank had no artistic merit what-so-ever in her mind.
Fairly quickly I started regretting pretty-darned strongly ever showing her the tank.

UG I don't mean to re-open any healed wounds but as I was reading this it
immediately reminded me of when I showed my girlfriend my 20gal long "iwagumi" tank. The tank got ripped a new one when in
my eyes it was beautiful.
The nice comments from members really provided that needed pick me up. UG you got the eye and talent to create some pretty unique and fantastic layouts. Maybe a few plant-nerds and myself could see it in person someday
