Hi,

I am probably going to start a new aquarium. A while back, I saw an aquarium that was half empty and had plants that grew out of the water and had leaves above the water and acted sortof like a canopy. It looked fantastic. I'm not sure how it is set up and what plants are used for this, does anyone know the name of this type of aquarium so I can google it and research how its done.

Thanks.

sorry for my silly question, i just forgot the name of this type of planted aquarium.

They are also referred to as "ripariums" since they recreate a riparian environment
