A mid-size aquarium layout featuring Midsummer, 144 L, by Tino Katja. Lava rock and santigi wood set the depth lines of the frame.
Read the stone and wood (Lava rock, santigi wood) as visual pathways before judging the plant mass. On the plant side, the layout leans toward a mixed planting with species such as Nympoides indica, nymphaea micrantha, cyperus helferi — trim in layers so hardscape still breathes. Platinum soil by jun substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
Chihiros wrgb slim lighting sits at a moderate-to-high technical level for this mid-size aquarium. Atman 3338s filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters.
