Expansive 60 cm Panoramic Biotope Canvas

The generous 60 × 36 × 45 cm footprint gives aquascapers ample depth to construct dramatic driftwood roots, emergent rock structures, and multi-layered riparian plant zones.

Waterfall Wall & Vertical Planting Pads

Twelve absorbent Foresta Mat plant pads line the back wall beneath the cascade, holding moisture while staying permeable to air, so living moss walls and ferns root across the full 60 cm width.

Hidden High-Capacity Chamber Filtration

A discrete rear filtration compartment of about 26.5 litres conceals the circulation pump and bio sponge media behind a chamber lid, maintaining pristine water conditions without external canisters.
