This tank is brand new and still growing.

Watch the pan: vivid pink stem plants at the back, seiryu stone laid out in a natural valley, a carpet of feathery green filling in across the foreground, and young dalmatian angelfish cruising the rocks. In a few weeks this will be a jungle.

That's the honest part of aquascaping: you don't buy a finished forest, you watch one grow. Every week it looks different than the week before.

Come see it in person this holiday season at our shop in Logan Valley Mall in Altoona, open today until 6 PM, or browse qscapes.fish. Follow along here and watch it fill in.

Skip the gift card. Give something alive.

A planted tank is the gift that keeps growing: it changes every week, it quiets a room, and nobody returns it. This one is a forest of feathery green with a mossy foreground and tiny fish moving through the stems.

This holiday season, think nature. QScapes has planted tanks, terrariums, rare plants, driftwood, stone, and everything a hobbyist on your list actually wants. And for the person who has everything, a Collector's Club rare plant subscription ships nationwide all year.

Find a gift no one else thought of: visit us in the shop at Logan Valley Mall in Altoona, open today until 6 PM, or browse online at qscapes.fish.

This one has discovered the glass.

Paws up, face out, staring at every kid who walks by. We're calling it the puppy in the window move, and honestly, it's working.

Axolotls are one of the most fascinating animals you can keep: they stay aquatic their whole lives, they regrow lost limbs, and they always look like they're smiling. They do need cool water, gentle flow, and a sand-bottom tank, and we can walk you through the full setup.

The axolotls are in the shop now at Logan Valley Mall in Altoona, and this one is accepting visitors today until 7 PM. Come meet them in person.

Angelfish are the centerpiece fish for a reason.

They move like they're posing: tall, slow, deliberate, with those long trailing fins. In a planted community tank they bring height and presence that small schooling fish can't.

A few things to know before adding them:

Angelfish prefer taller tanks, since their fins grow long and they swim vertically as much as horizontally.

They're peaceful, but they're still cichlids. They do best with calm tankmates like tetras and corydoras, and they'll occasionally claim territory when breeding.

They love warm, soft, slightly acidic water and a heavily planted tank with broad-leaf plants to rest against.

We have angelfish in the shop now, including these koi-patterned ones swimming in our own tanks. Come in and see them in person: we're open today until 6 PM at Logan Valley Mall in Altoona.

The best tanks are planned before they're filled.

This one starts with the right foundation: nutrient-rich substrate, healthy plants, and a layout that gives every stem room to grow. Get those right at the start, and the tank practically maintains itself.

Starting a new tank? Come see us first. We'll help you pick substrate, plants, and hardscape that fit your setup, and walk you through lighting and cycling before you add a single fish.

We're open today, Sunday, until 6 PM at Logan Valley Mall in Altoona. Start your tank off right.

Still thinking about adding guppies? Today's the last day to save 20% on all guppies, in-store only. Guppypalooza ends at 6 PM, and tomorrow prices return to normal.

Our young guppies are growing out faster than they're finding homes, and every one that leaves this weekend is one less tank to feed. Guppies are hardy, peaceful livebearers that thrive in planted tanks and do best in groups.

Come into our Altoona store at Logan Valley Mall today, Sunday, 12–6, before the offer ends at 6 PM.

Terrarium season is back. As the days shorten and we spend more time indoors, a glass terrarium brings a little living greenery inside with minimal day-to-day effort.

This custom QScapes build centers on a striking piece of driftwood, with shade-loving plants suited to enclosed humidity and a grow light built into the lid.

We create custom terrariums, paludariums, and moss walls. If you’d rather build your own, we also carry glass, substrate, driftwood, and plants.

Visit the QScapes store at Logan Valley Mall in Altoona to start a terrarium of your own.
