International biotope aquarium design contest

We are glad to welcome you on the official page of the International Biotope Aquarium Design Contest!

During the existence of the contest, its organizers, participants and jury members became a real team of like-minded people. Our contest significantly influenced the popularization of biotope aquaristic around the world, which is important for studying the nature habitats of underwater inhabitants permanently endangered in nature.

From year to year, the number of aquarists and countries participating in the competition grows. For 9 years, 655 applications from 54 countries of the world were accepted. At the same time, the rules and evaluation criteria are constantly updated, so participation in the contest turns into a research interesting not only for the participants, but for the audience as well. As a result of the contest, a magazine with the world best biotope aquaria is published.

We invite you to join and to help us making aquaristic even more interesting. Perhaps it is you who will become the first representative of your country in our contest or will promote the biotope aquaristic in another way!

Countries participating in the competition from 2011 to 2019:

Argentina, Austria, Australia, Belarus, Belgium, Brasil, Brunei, Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, China, Costa Rica, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, France, Georgia, Germany, Greece, Guatemala, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Ireland,  Israel, Italy, Japan, Kazakhstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Malaysia, Mexico, Morocco, Netherlands, Peru, Philippines, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Singapore, Slovakia, South Korea, Spain, Taiwan, Turkey, Ukraine, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, USA, Vietnam
