Award Winning Planted Aquariums
Planted aquariums are some of the most beautiful aquariums you can get, and some aquarium enthusiasts able to create stunning lush, natural-looking landscapes within the confines of a tank. Don’t expect neon gravel, miniature plastic castles or sunken treasure boxes sprinkled with glitter – oh no, these are painstakingly created works of art, replicas of miniature underwater worlds with driftwood, rocks, underwater moss and plants, not to mention the fish swimming peacefully among them.
I for one, have never managed to do so which is why, I find these planted tanks even more amazing.
Each year the Aquatic Gardeners Association, a group of more than 1,300 enthusiasts, holds a contest to name the best tanks in the world. Here’s the showcase, of their entries across the years.
