BREATH OF THE HABITAT

A large aquarium layout featuring BREATH OF THE HABITAT, 405 L, by Jun Xing. Driftwood and black lava Stone set the depth lines of the frame.

The hardscape with Driftwood sets the rhythm; planting should support those lines without burying them. On the plant side, the layout leans toward slow-growing epiphytes with species such as bolbitis heudelotii, Anubias, Anubias nana — trim in layers so hardscape still breathes. River Sand,ADA Amazonia Soi substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.

RGB LED LIGHTS 140W x 2 lighting sits at a moderate-to-high technical level for this large aquarium. EHEIM 2080 filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters.
