A small aquarium layout featuring Forgotten Roots, 84 L (22.2 gal.), Aquatic Garden style, by SESHA SRINIVAS PICHUKALA. LAVA ROCK set the depth lines of the frame.
Read the stone and wood (LAVA ROCK) as visual pathways before judging the plant mass. About 23 plant species are listed — fine for a multi-layer look, but keep a care log so slower species are not shaded out. ADA AMAZONIA VER.2 substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
Chihiros wrgb 2 slim lighting sits at a high technical level for this small aquarium. CO₂ (30ppm, 1 hr before lights on) — see our CO₂ systems if you want to clone a similar setup. Fluval207 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.
