"Biological filtration far supersedes that of any plants.." This is the fact. In this connection aquascaping, which seems to have taken over aquarium videos, is setting up an aquatic diorama which exists in aesthetic beauty until the plants die back and melt. Fish-scaping with wood, rock and plants (live or artificial) is the art of setting up an aquarium ecosystem system, stable but constantly changing with the movement of fish (and if plants their growth). The two are not the same thing. Aquascaping is not fish keeping. The tank's setup is intended to serve the fish and fry, their needs and health. The point is the fish, snails and shrimp. It is fish keeping. Plants are an auxiliary subservient to the fish. That means the tank may not be a an aquascaping dream. It is possible, perhaps, in a measure to have both fish keeping and an attractive aquascape, but the priority is the fish. In aquascaping the fish are a decoration not the object. A lot of new hobbyists are being sold aquascaping instead of fish keeping to the detriment of the new hobbyist and the hobby in general.
