Sept 20, 2009: Aquascaping
Zillions of people have aquariums... a few fish, a couple of real or fake plants, maybe an arch or sunken treasure chest. This ain't that.
This is about people that aquascape their aquariums. They create beautiful, ecologically balanced scenes, with water plants, rocks, sticks and fish.

On the still-transitioning part of Fillmore Street, a few blocks away from the boutique wood-oven pizza parlor and the Marc Jacobs store, Aqua Forest Aquarium is the first shop in the United States to specialize in the style known as "nature aquarium" -- the idea that rather than simply housing a colorful collection of fish, an aquarium should reflect the beauty, visual harmony and even tension of a wild landscape. Plants are the main element, but driftwood and stones are used as well to create a more natural feel.

It looks like it would take a lot of research and work to set up, but from there it should pretty much take care of itself.
Hey, sometimes the hippies and yuppies get it right.:thumb:
