Flow (AGA 2024 #184)

A large aquarium layout featuring Flow (AGA 2024 #184), 309 L, by Kiat Fuil Yap. The composition is built around Malaysian Driftwood with River Rock.

The hardscape with Malaysian Driftwood sets the rhythm; planting should support those lines without burying them. On the plant side, the layout leans toward mosses and epiphytes with species such as 1.Coral Moss 2.Us Fissiden 3.Weeping Moss 4.Mini Fissiden 5.Rotala Green 6.Rotala Orange Juice 7.Myriophyllum Matogrosense Golden 8.Microcarpae Minima Merill 9.Hemianthus Micranthemum 10.Eleocharis Montevidensis 11.Eleocharis Parvula 12.Vallisneria Spiralis Red 13.Staurogyne Repens 14.Mini Christmas moss 15.Anubias Nana Petite 16.Anubias Pangalino 17.Eleocharis Acicularis Mini 18.Crepidomanes sp. — trim in layers so hardscape still breathes. Master Jun Soil, ADA LA plata sand substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.

Week Aqua Phoenix L1200pro lighting sits at a approachable technical level for this large aquarium. Ejet 3388 x2 Periha 1500L x2 filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters. Low-tech tip: favor slow growers and avoid dense planting if filtration is modest.
