What we experience here are corals like from another world. Here, in the basement of the reefs, an unusual blaze of colour develops. Below 30 m, the water appears deep blue, and many corals use intensively fluorescent proteins to make the most of the little light radiation that is still present here.

Our unique system aims to successfully care for these coral species and to bring out the full splendour of these corals. Us Style aquariums recreate the depth range from 30m. They take advantage of the adaptability of many corals, but also offer them exactly the habitat that deep-water corals need. Beautifully glowing hard corals can be maintained here with LPS as well as soft corals.

Because of the low amount of light, US Style corals need a good food supply, and fish and shrimps fits well to the US Style habitat.

US Style – mysterious glow in all colors

In this aquarium we encounter a magical colour spectacle of corals, which at first sight seem artificial. Are these corals real? The mysterious glow of fluorescent green acroporids attracts the first glance, then bright yellow disk anemones at the bottom attract attention. As soon as the gaze wanders through the tank, all the colours of the rainbow appear. Cream-coloured branches with deep blue growth tips, pink and violet corals, a wine-red Acropora plate between those, growing into the open water in the middle of the tank. Next to it, Montipora branches stretch upwards in strong orange. All colours are strangely intense. The colourfulness seems dramatic and at the same time somehow unreal. Nothing but the fluorescent corals is visible. Everything else disappears in the dark blue of the mysterious depth.
