Jungle path

A mid-size aquarium layout featuring Jungle path, 96L, by Andrés Esteban Cordero Porras. The planting revolves around Hemianthus callitrichoides ¨cuba¨.

The plant list (Hemianthus callitrichoides ¨cuba¨) favors foreground carpeting; packing the foreground too dense can make the tank feel heavy. White vinyl with blue and red lights substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.

DIY led light, 6500k, 4800 lm lighting sits at a approachable technical level for this mid-size aquarium. Finnex PX-150 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.
