Perhaps it just funtions as a secret WabiKusa factory for ADA......😀

Hahah! Why not? Then they'll have Euro-produced ADA wabi kusa plants!

Hi all

I was there today... No words for describing such a wonderful masterpiece: perfect scale and proportion, no sign of algae, super healthy plants perfectly trimmed, clean sand. I hardly manage to keep my 25 liters tank in such conditions. Huge design and maintenance effort!

I post some picture, just for showing that you definitely have to go to Lisbon (wonderful city and people!)

The Nina Hagen song pops into my mind...."Ich will ein fish sein" (I want to be a fish).....

If its still there next summer, I will for sure visit again 😉 sure was the aquascaping highlight of 2015, and not because I am biased Lisbon is a great place to visit.

It is... Just back from 6 wonderful days there. Don't miss the Estufa Fria (shade with tropical plants), the Botanical Garden, the LX Factory and the Berardez Art Collection. And of course get lost anywhere. It is a great place to go and do nothing special but living there for a few days. Portuguese food is wonderful and people too.

I had wondered if the smooth shape of those bushes of Rotala could really occur in nature.
Now I've got the answer. This picture is a part of a presentation of the University of Florida on
"Efficacy of Aquatic Herbicides on Rotala (Rotala rotundifolia)". 🙂

Hi guys,

I posted on my YT Channel this video a few days ago. This is "Florestas Submersas" seen from backstage, mainly from above.
Enjoy!
