Always love your poses and anatomically correct figures!
Image is a bit too dark (like it is nighttime). The mermaids could be brighter, more as in the center of attention.

You should have added a simple background and some reflective HDRI image mapping.
Easy to do in time …

I’m not sure, but I think the bowl object could have more subdivisions.
Like the dark top ridge/ring shows pointy artifacts.
The DHRI map has many repetitions (window reflections). It draws too much attention I think.

Yes, the transition between water and glass is difficult (reflections).
What I miss is the thickness of the glass rim, on top of the tank.

I’ve adjusted it so many times that it lost it. I didn’t even noticed it.

The bowl is a screw modifier + solidify modifier. I tried increasing the steps, but unfortunately it didn’t help with the lip issue.
Probably needed to apply the modifiers and bevel the sharp edge.
I agree about the reflections. I chose the hdri because of the color tones and I wanted some subdivisions. The worst part is that the reflections look circular… I tried increasing the size of the back wall but it didn’t change the reflections at all. Still, I think reflections are an improvement over nothing.
Do you know of a way to clip an hdri? Like have it only cover 180 degrees of the background?
@FedPete Amazing work. the water effect and the light really set it apart from the rest, truly amazing.
@Blest Excelling at storytelling as always. Amazing use of previous works.
@Cyndi I just love the entire concept and execution.
@TripleJ The entirety of the entry screams cuteness. The mean face of the fish is just perfect.
@Mateusz The background plants look great, the movement they have truly convey water.
@yo_johann The rocks and the fake coral really make it stand out.
@Alex_Rusu To me, you get the prize for best reflection, it looks quite realistic.
@Myself Really? Low Poly and low effort again? Come on! 
Great entries overall, it was a hard choice.

Yes, thank you, I finish at night with a dark screen mode. I can overestimate the lighting. I’ll pay attention to this.
Ok, I will remember for next time. My apologies. My work schedule is crazy and I forgot to check back sooner.
