Riparium Articles Clearinghouse
Over the course of the past couple of years there have a number of articles and similar kinds of media that are all about planted ripariums. The published information on this new kind of aquarium hobby is still sparse and diffuse, so I thought that it could handy to start a thread with a list of these kinds of references.
