hug

A large aquarium layout featuring hug, 359.9L, by taegi yoon. The hardscape focus sits on bluedragonstone, mangrove.

Hardscape (bluedragonstone, mangrove) forms the skeleton — negative space between wood and stone guides the eye from foreground to depth. On the plant side, the layout leans toward foreground carpeting with species such as Micranthemum 'montecarlo' — trim in layers so hardscape still breathes. no substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.

Chihiros vivid2 *2 lighting sits at a moderate-to-high technical level for this large aquarium. qq1500*2 filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters.

With Paracheirodon axelrodi, watch bioload: a large aquarium drifts quickly if stocking is heavy.
