Ohko Crest

A small aquarium layout featuring Ohko Crest, 77 L (20.3 gal.), Aquatic Garden style, by Miles Thielman. The hardscape focus sits on Ohko Stone.

The hardscape with Ohko Stone sets the rhythm; planting should support those lines without burying them. About 3 plant species are listed — fine for a multi-layer look, but keep a care log so slower species are not shaded out. ADA Amazonia ver.2, ADA PowerSand Advance substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.

NilocG BlackBox lighting sits at a moderate-to-high technical level for this small aquarium. CO₂ (30ppm ~7 hours one hour before lights come on.) — see our CO₂ systems if you want to clone a similar setup. 1x Oase Biomaster 250 filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters.

Scroll to the specs table to match each equipment line; more inspiration in 55–80L.
