A mid-size aquarium layout featuring Always Green, 158 L, by Ki-Yeong Kim. The composition is built around Nature Sand white with knife stone.
The hardscape with Nature Sand white sets the rhythm; planting should support those lines without burying them. On the plant side, the layout leans toward a mixed planting with species such as Vesicularia sp, Vesicularia dubyana ‘, Christmas’ — trim in layers so hardscape still breathes. Neo Soil Compact premium plants, Nature Sand white substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
Chihiros RGB vivid 2, 8h/1day 130w RGB lighting sits at a moderate-to-high technical level for this mid-size aquarium. QQ-AQUA BC 1500 filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters.
