Abstract
Aquascaping is the method of arranging aquatic plants, rocks, stones, cave work, driftwood etc. in an aesthetically pleasing manner within an aquarium. The new aquascaping style was pioneered by Mr. Takashiamano in 1900. Proper placement of various elements in an aquascape makes it more attractive to eyes. Some important elements for aquascaping are imagination, substrate, hardscape materials, water filters, fishes etc. Proper plant selection makes aquascapes more attractive. Aquascaping styles like dutch style, jungle style, iwagumi style, nature aquarium style, biotope style, paludariums etc. are widely used today. Proper maintenance of aquascape is very important as failure of appropriate lighting, carbon dioxide supplements, temperature etc. can totally destroy the system. There is a need to boost aquascaping industry and related industries in India as there is a growing demand in the domestic as well as international market.
