Second video from The Art of the Planted Aquarium, presenting aquariums which took places 6-10. My favourite aquascapes are aquariums of the 6th and 9th places. The first one is a very nice, simple yet beautiful iwagumi layout made by Georg W. Just, and the second one is a driftwood-based composition by Tobias Fricke, with ingenious positioning of Anubias nana on top of the driftwood. There is one usunusal aquatic plant in this aquarium - it's Ranunculus fluitans, a coldwater species of plant which you can find easily in Central European rivers.
All aquariums were provided by Eheim, there are standard Eheim aquarium lighting in the hoods (2 T5 fluorescent lamps) and Eheim external aquarium canister filters. No CO2 supply systems were used during the contest. The substrate was provided by Dennerle, however some scapers used their own substrate. There were no tropical aquarium fish in the aquariums because they are forbidden by the rules of the contest :)
