AS MULTIPURPOSE PALUDARIUMS GROW in popularity, so does the American aquascaping market. For customers who want to combine water, land, plants and animals in the same environment, stock hardscapes that fill the tank in interesting ways. Add hearty and delicate aquatic plants plus slippery shrimp to fill. Include trimming tools for a tidy landscape plus high-end filters and beneficial bacteria to keep water crystal clear. (See last year’s top aquascaping picks.)
