Orphek's commitment to developing cutting-edge lighting solutions has proven to be a valuable asset for curators, researches, enthusiasts and hobbyists who are dedicated to creating and maintaining thriving and visually stunning freshwater planted aquariums.
Health, growth, color and balanced environments

Planted aquariums aim to replicate natural underwater environments found in freshwater ecosystems, incorporating living plants to create a harmonious and balanced ecosystem.
The plants play a crucial role in enhancing the aesthetics of the aquarium, providing natural hiding spots for fish, and contributing to the overall health and stability of the aquatic environment.
Successful freshwater planted aquariums require careful consideration of factors such as lighting, substrate, water quality, to ensure the thriving growth of both plants and aquatic inhabitants.
In this week's post Orphek is all about customization and how Orphek customized the Atlantik iCon showcasing Kim Jae Young's freshwater planted aquarium and DoseAqua store located in Brazil.

The choice of light and the results in Kim's Aquarium
The Atlantik unit design and spectrums heightened the impeccable elegance of the Kim's rimless tank structure and its remarkably clear edges. It also intensified the vibrancy of the plant's colors, significantly enhancing the tank's overall allure.
The Atlantik iCon not only contributes to the visual appeal of freshwater planted aquariums by illuminating the underwater landscape in captivating ways, but they also promotes the lush growth of his aquatic plants.
The exceptional PAR output of the Atlantik iCon ensures that plants receive ample light energy for photosynthesis. This translates into healthy growth and optimal pigment production, resulting in plants that truly shines with life and vibrancy, including high demanding carpeting plants.
