Rolling Hills
Rolling Hills is a nano Iwagumi planted aquarium and was one of our longest-running aquaecapes to date. With aquascaping, it’s normal to get an itch to rescape and experiment with new ideas! This one remained untouched for more than a year.
The goal was to create a simple layout with minimal hardscape and planting. Ryuoh Stone, a longtime favorite, was selected for its texture and ability to create a strong impression while letting plants take center stage. Two popular carpeting plants were used in tandem to intertwine as the layout matured. We purposely avoid trimming to let it evolve naturally, as nature does.
At the tank’s final stage, the original sand trail all but disappeared, leaving a small resting area for the pygmy corydora. Rolling Greens was a prime example of letting nature do what it does best.
