Wabi Kusa is the art of arranging different aquatic plants growing on a substrate medium in the shape of a ball. The term "wabi-sabi" in Japanese, means something that is natural yet imperfect in which one can find beauty. The simple elegance of nature and it's a tendency to stray from symmetry is the key to a beautiful wabi-kusa setup.

One of the best parts is how customizable it is! Go airy and minimal with a few texture-forward plants, or pack it in for a dense, lush “living sculpture” look. If you’re planning a wabi kusa aquarium, choose plants that match your light and humidity level, then give them time to settle as they adapt to their new growing style. Popular choices include echinodorus wabi kusa for its hardy, broad-leaf structure, and assorted stem plant wabi kusa for various color and texture shifts, which look amazing up close.  

Check out all of the products you can use for your own wabi-kusa setup. Note that there will be a transition process necessary when working with aquatic plants. You can visit our blog article here for more information.
