739.8L Paludarium The Roots Of Mother Nature

Abhineet Prakash Anand · India

This paludarium was created with the inspiration taken from the valleys of Uttrakhand in India and the theme is based on rainforest. The aquascape contains the flow of roots of different 植物 transforming from terrestrial area to aquatic area creating an aesthetic detailed view when seen in real life. It was challenging to maintain this setup in its initial stage as the temperature in Delhi (India) in its peak summers goes from 113 degree fahrenheit to 120 degree fahrenheit. The upper (terrestrial) portion is completely based on hydroponics as 无 soil or growing medium is used. The setup contains two elevated cliffs, the larger one (main) on the left and the smaller one on right. It also contains a cave waterfall (not clearly noticeable from front view). This setup is now almost 36 months old which requires monthly 维护. All the 植物 and fishes are living in harmony.
