He Introduced the Rotala 'Blood Red' to Singapore! | Tank Talks with LitiAquaria's Jacky

Welcome back to Zenscape, where we experience the divine through aqua design. In this tranquil episode of Zenscape, we invite you to sink into the lush, aquatic universe of Jacky, the founding mind behind Liti Aquaria. A craftsman of design and water, Jacky designs sleek stainless steel pipes and pendant lighting accessories that do more than help illuminate your tanks - they become an integral part of your aquascape, nudging the line between utility and artistry. But there's more to Jacky than meets the fish eye. An engineer by profession, and a coffee-brewer by passion, he's certainly not your run-of-the-mill aquascaper. His touch can be seen, or rather, grown across Singapore in the form of the vibrant Rotala Rotundifolia 'Blood Red'. A species he introduced to the country, that now paints the city's aquascapes with their crimson hues - a testament to Jacky's vision and passion. So, pour yourself a cuppa, settle in, and immerse yourself in our dialogue with Jacky.
