In surprising aquascaping news, competitive Spanish aquascaper, Juan Puchades, has decided to retire. Here is his Facebook post just hours ago:


He cites wanting to rest and seek new horizons, while thanking his 15 years of aquascaping competitively.

I realize the world of competitive aquascaping is a very niche area within a niche hobby, I can't help but feel it's in a bit of turmoil. ADA recently made some changes to how they will announce the IAPLC winners that disappointed many.

Is it just too demanding? Not enough interest?
