Additional Information As the name implies, this aquascape is intended to represent White Rock Creek, a small creek that runs through Dallas County in Texas. Specifically, the habitat displayed here is representative of what one may find in the upper half of the creek. The water in this portion of the creek runs clear over limestone bedrock, boulders, and gravel. I have tried here to recreate as accurately as possible a gravel and rock bottomed portion of the creek, collecting all animals, plants, rocks, and substrate locally from the creek itself.
