The aquarium is inspired by white sandy beaches with few plants spreading from the jungle in the background.
The red and well-lighted Nymphaea lotus creates a natural point of focus among several variations of green plants in this aquarium. The front with Staurogyne Repens glides naturally into the plants in the middle, including Microsorum Pteropus 'Trident' and Anubias Barteri var nana 'Petite', resulting in a harmonic connection between the front and middle.
The plants in front are sloping a bit from left to right, in order to offer the viewer, who naturally sees this aquarium from the right side of the room, a great perspective.
Between the big rocks, Vesicularia ferriei 'Weeping' comes rolling like small waterfalls, tumbling to the sea from inside the dark jungle.
