Inspired

A large aquarium layout featuring Inspired, 360 L, by nature by Durvesh Gaikar. Gotland stones and Lucky stump woods set the depth lines of the frame.

Read the stone and wood (Gotland stones, Lucky stump woods, Wood bark, Honey comb woods) as visual pathways before judging the plant mass. On the plant side, the layout leans toward background stem plants with species such as Monte carlo, Hydrocotyle verticillata, Ludwigia arcuata — trim in layers so hardscape still breathes. ADA Power sand, ADA amazonia soil, ADA la plata sand substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.

Chihiros WRGB II Pro 120cm lighting sits at a moderate-to-high technical level for this large aquarium. Eheim classic 600 X 2 X 2 / ADA bio rio filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters.
