Mark has designed a dramatic rock landscape where the eye is caught in the light green, luxuriant foreground and guided towards the centre of the aquarium. Here we meet an abundance of colours and shapes. Dark green moss and a dense Tenellus forest frame the V-shaped edge. The colourful stem plants are challenging but if you succeed, they will be a nice contrast to the peaceful green foreground.

Note: Plant F on the drawing is Ludwigia arcuata, plant A is Alternanthera reineckii 'Purple' which are no longer produced by Tropica.
