I-Aquascaping imele uyilo lwangoku kunye nolungaqhelekanga lwe-aquarium. Akukho mida kubuchule bokuyila xa uyilwa imihlaba engaphantsi kwamanzi. Intshatsheli yehlabathi ye-aquascaping u-Oliver Knott uchaza ukuphunyezwa okuchanekileyo.
Uluhlu lweentaba ezintle kwiiAlps ezinamadlelo aluhlaza kunye namahlathi aluhlaza. Ubuncinane yiloo nto onokucinga ngayo xa ujonga umfanekiso ohambelanayo. Kodwa impazamo: ayisiyiyo imbonakalo yomhlaba, kodwa malunga ne-aquarium eyilwe ngokungaqhelekanga. Ubuchule obusemva kwayo bubizwa ngokuba yi-aquascaping (ephuma kwigama lesiNgesi elithi landscape). "Kum, i-aquascaping ayikho enye into ngaphandle kwegadi engaphantsi kwamanzi, uyilo lobuhle be-aquariums - efana noyilo lweegadi. Imizobo engaphantsi kwamanzi inokuba mnandi, utshilo umyili we-aquarium uOliver Knott.
I-Aquascaping yazalwa malunga ne-1990. Ngelo xesha, uTakashi Amano waseJapan wazisa ihlabathi elingaphantsi kwamanzi elingazange libonwe ngaphambili ngencwadi yakhe ethi "Naturaquarien". I-Amano ayiziqondi ii-aquariums zendalo njenge-1: 1 ikopi ye-biotopes yokwenyani, kodwa licandelo elincinci lendalo. “Izinto ezinokwenzeka azinamda. Akukhathaliseki nokuba kukubunjwa kwamatye, isiqithi, umsinga, okanye isiphunzi somthi esifileyo esizele bubulembu: yonke into inokukhutshelwa,” utsho uKnott.
Olu hlobo lwe-aquarists lujoliswe ukubhenela kubaphulaphuli abancinci ngokukodwa, kuba inokuzisa "isitayela" somntu ngamnye. “Ekugqibeleni, akukho nto intle njengokubukela izityalo zityibilika nabemi bomhlaba omangalisayo ophantsi kwamanzi beshukuma emva komsebenzi onzima wosuku,” uchulumancisa uKnott. Ngoku kukho neentshatsheli zamazwe ngamazwe apho owona mhlaba ubalaseleyo wangaphantsi kwamanzi uwongwa. UKnott wayesele ekwazile ukukhusela intshinga yehlabathi.
Ukukhethwa kwezilwanyana kufuneka kuthathelwe ingqalelo ngononophelo
Kodwa amaqela anomdla angayiphinda njani imbonakalo-mhlaba abayifunayo kwifomathi encinci ngaphantsi kwamanzi? U-Oliver Knott unikeza imiyalelo egqibeleleyo kule ncwadi yakhe ethi «Aquascaping». Umzekelo, ucebisa ukuba angabeki elona litye likhulu embindini wedama, kodwa linciphe kancinci, ngasekhohlo okanye ngasekunene phakathi. Amanye amatye kufuneka afakwe umgca ukwenzela ukuba umphumo jikelele uphuculwe. Iingcambu nazo zinokuhonjiswa ngamatye. Oku kudala ingcamango yokuba iingcambu kunye namatye zenza iyunithi, ebangela "impembelelo emangalisayo ye-optical".
Ukutyala kudlala indima ebalulekileyo, ekubeni izityalo "zipenda" imifanekiso. Amaqela amakhulu ezityalo ezifanayo ahlala esebenza ngcono kunezinye, utsho uKnott. Ii-accents zingasetwa kunye nezityalo ezibomvu okanye iimilo ezikhethekileyo zamagqabi. Ukuze ugcine ujongo, kufuneka uqale ngezityalo zangaphambili ngaphambi kokuba udlulele kwizityalo ezingasemva ngokudlula kumhlaba ophakathi.
Kwaye, ngokuqinisekileyo, ukhetho lwezilwanyana lufanele luqwalaselwe ngenyameko. Kungcono ukwenza uluhlu olunqwenelekayo lweentlanzi kunye neemfuno zabo ekufuneka zihlangatyezwe kwangaphambili. Emva kwayo yonke loo nto, ngokutsho kukaKnott, eyona njongo iphambili ye-aquascaping "kukudala i-oasis encinci eluhlaza enika abahlali bayo umgangatho wobomi kwaye idale ulonwabo nokuphumla".
