DICI Aquascaping Classroom--Aquascaping Introduction II
DICI aquascaping classroom is a platform offering aquascaping study and training for
aquascape hobbyists. Aquascape, in accordance with the living creatures and aquatic
habits and characteristics, and form the view of esthetics, recreates a natural ecosystem
and landscape in the place near your living space. The system of this cycle is exactly same
as the one we see in our natural ecosystem, and this is why the aquarium is called
"micro-comos".

Speak of fish tanks, many of us conjure up images of a circular tank with two fishes swim round and found. The truth is with the layout of aquatic plants, the tank is injected colorful contents--a same tank can create various landscape. Let's draw an analogy between aquascape and a sofa. Imagining, it's OK without a sofa in your house but it can beautify your house. That's the mean of aquascaping design.

Iwagumi Style

Delicate landscape ideas, the arrangement of different aquatic plants, make the layout like Chinese landscape painting. This is one of the most popular aquascaping styles today. It was first made popular by the Father of Modern Aquascaping, Takashi Amano, and is characterized by a series of stones arranged according to the Golden Ratio, or Rule of Thirds. There should always be an odd number of stones to prevent the layout from ‘balancing’, since the human eye always tries to see a ‘split’ in balanced layouts. There are at least three stones: a larger ‘Father’ stone, and at least two secondary stones. There can be more, so long as the total number remains odd.

This isn’t very common anymore, and has in some areas fallen ‘out-of-style’ compared to the Iwagumi or Nature Aquarium tank. Nonetheless, it’s usually seen with high terraces of varying depth, and its strangest feature is small objects or figurines placed in the tank to create a sense of ‘life’.
Dutch Style

This style is characterized by many different types of plants with multiple leaf types. It’s commonly seen with raised ‘layers’, or terraces, known as Dutch ‘streets’. The floor is covered by either a carpet, or plants, with taller plants lining the back of the tank. Most noticeably, it usually has no landscape—you won’t see much, if any, stone or driftwood in Dutch tanks.
Biotope Style

This style seeks to perfectly emulate a natural environment, including water conditions, flora and
fauna species, and even the hardscape of stone and/or driftwood. These can be quite beautiful,
and are useful for some biologists to study environments that would otherwise be a challenge to
study. Oddly enough, these tanks are usually somewhat easier to setup and maintain, since there
isn’t any research needed to determine whether the flora and fauna you’re using are compatible
—they exist side-by-side in the wild.

This style is somewhat self-explanatory. The goal is to emulate a jungle, whether that’s the Amazon, or some other location. They’re quite popular in larger tanks, where the full scale of the style can be effectively portrayed.
