The aquarium takes its inspiration from the Rio Trombetas, specifically in the Comunidade Iripixi, where the discus were caught. Here, the water does not flow violently and has a colour similar to black tea. There are branches of trees that have fallen into the water, and the riverbed is composed of fine white sand and dry leaves.
