Biotope One A Study of Flora and Fauna 
Occasionally we see pictures of some crazy fish shops but this is another level. It is common to see fish pre-bagged in some parts of the world. This is a well stocked example of this type of fish store.
If you can take your eyes off the bags hanging on the wall you’ll notice hardscape tubs lining the floor.
The display tanks scattered around the shop are excellent showcases of products and plants they carry.
Driftwood in all shapes and sizes wait for someone to select them for designing an aquascape.
Driftwood, plants, and iwagumi aren’t the only things available. It would appear that the shopkeeper is anticipating a lot of fish sales to have them prepackaged and waiting.
How they keep and manage this amount of fish in this condition is unknown to us but it would seem that they have to know what they are doing to have satisfactory results over the course of a weekend. Regardless most of the fish keeping community hasn’t seen a fish and plant store like this one.
