Two sons life´s

A large aquarium layout featuring Two sons life´s, 240 L (63.4 gal.), Aquatic Garden style, by Victor Costa. The hardscape focus sits on Dragon Stone.

The hardscape with Dragon Stone sets the rhythm; planting should support those lines without burying them. About 20 plant species are listed — fine for a multi-layer look, but keep a care log so slower species are not shaded out. Tropica Aquarium Soil complete bottom layer,Tropica Aquarium Soil Powder ,JBL Proscape Volcano Mineral substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.

Chihiros WRGB2 Pro 120 lighting sits at a high technical level for this large aquarium. CO₂ (25 ppm CO2) — see our CO₂ systems if you want to clone a similar setup. JBL Cristal Profi E 1902 filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters. High-tech balance means nutrients, light, and CO₂ must stay in step; one weak leg often triggers spot or hair algae.
