In order to arrange the driftwood naturally, it is very important to observe the way natural trees grow. Here we placed Yamaha Stones around the driftwood, so that the driftwood looks stable in a natural form. The existence of Microsorum creates a sense of unity in the layout, and it also covers the cluttered underparts of the stemmed plants in the background.
The line of driftwood is very impressive. In a tall aquarium tank, power and perspective are skillfully expressed by driftwood. The plants in the fore- and middle-ground were mainly selected from bright green color plants, and the stemmed plants with gentle impression were planted in the background. Bright color Ramirezi is adding a contrasting touch to the plant.
