DOOA’s system aquariums allow us to effortlessly enjoy layouts and growing plants. Shibata, one of the best maintenance technicians in the NAC department, introduces the daily maintenance and practice. I’m doing maintenance today too!, says Shibata.

Create your own forest
Creating a layout and growing plants is definitely a fun part of the System Paluda, but you can also add your favorite plants to the layout and enjoy collecting plants along with the layout creation. For example, you can enjoy the dream of creating your own forest by collecting multiple species of plants of the same genus that are close to each other and watching them grow together in a single glass case, and imagine their native habitat. This is the last article of the “Have fun with system” series, but I would like to continue to enjoy “my own forest” through creating layouts, nurturing and collecting plants. Thank you for reading all 12 installments!

There are many unique terrestrial plant species that can coexist in a glass case. Here are some of the unique plants that grow and coexist in this layout.

Arthropteris palisotii
