Rainbow Forest
About This Aquascape
The goal of this aquarium was to create a mix of Brazilian style with a wide variety of plants, as well as a Dutch style, like a rainbow. It's a personal hobbyist's aquarium that's been set up for two years, and the real fauna remains at the time of the photo. No fish were removed to prepare the photograph; the aquarium was kept as is for two years.
