Here is the aggregate data of the winning works (1 to 100 place) from the questionnaire on the application form. Please take a look at this year’s trend from the data.
Aquatic Plant Rankings
Because there were quite many detail-oriented works like dioramas, small sized aquatic plants dominated the top.
Fish Rankings
There were many high-level works. Therefore, red fish for complementary color effects and fish suitable for mono-fish aquariums stood out.
※Except fish for maintenance.
Aquarium Tank Sizes
Large aquarium tanks including W120cm dominated the top, and it was obviously a high-level competition. Among the top ranking winners, there was only one who used a W60cm aquarium tank.
Layout Materials
There were quite many works with a strong presence of composition materials as well as some classic works that made the most of stones and driftwood. The trend was divided into those two style types.
Comparison of the number of participation
It’s not a dream to pass the preliminary screening even for first-timers!? 1-3 times is the most common, and 2 people participated more than 20 times!! We hope that the contest will be loved by many people for a long time.
Participating areas
In terms of the number of participants by countries, by surpassing the 3rd place, China (8 people) and 2nd place, Indonesia (11 people), Japan (21 people) proudly became the 1st place. Let’s create an IAPLC movement from Asia to the world!
