In Underwater Forest, an aquascaping workshop at Neraw, you’ll create a miniature underwater landscape in a glass vessel. You’ll arrange natural stones and plant around them, using different leaf shapes and heights to give your landscape depth.
It’s an ideal introduction to the world of aquariums and aquatic plants. We’ll guide you from shaping the substrate to adding water, and show you how to care for your planted composition at home. Once it has matured, you may be able to add freshwater shrimp if the vessel size and water conditions are suitable.
You’ll take home your own Underwater Forest and watch it change as the plants grow. No previous experience is needed.
