Breath Of The Wild-Africa

A large aquarium layout featuring Breath Of The Wild-Africa, 405L, by XING KONGJUN. The composition is built around Driftwood with Sansu Stone.

Read the stone and wood (Driftwood ,Sansu Stone, root,ADA Amazonia Soil, River Sand) as visual pathways before judging the plant mass. The plant list (bolbitis heudelotii, Anubias, Anubias nana, Nymphaea lotus var.viridis) favors slow-growing epiphytes; packing the foreground too dense can make the tank feel heavy. NIL substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.

RGB LED LIGHTS 120W 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.

With Phenacogrammus aurantiacus, watch bioload: a large aquarium drifts quickly if stocking is heavy.

Setup notes: The primordial rainforest of West Africa is an unknown and mysterious region. The land which has suffered from poverty, enslavement, disease and war is almost forgotten by the world,however just like the prosperous growth of African aquatic plantsand the proudly swimming Phenacogrammus aurantiacus in the Congo River, it is full of strength and vitality. The blazing sunlight refracted on the shimmering water bottom, and life bloomed brilliantly in the deserted and barren West Africa land.
