A large aquarium layout featuring Garden (AGA 2024 #259), 190 L, by Suman Ghosh. The composition is built around Soil..
Hardscape (Soil.) forms the skeleton — negative space between wood and stone guides the eye from foreground to depth. The plant list (Blood red, ar mini, gandulosa, macranda mini butterfly) favors a mixed planting; packing the foreground too dense can make the tank feel heavy. Lava chips. substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
Azur beam pro 3 lighting sits at a approachable technical level for this large aquarium. Canister filter 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.
