A large aquarium layout featuring Old Forest (AGA 2025 #1016), 324 L (85.6 gal.), Aquatic Garden style, by Albert Escrihuela Cáceres. The hardscape focus sits on Seiryu Stone and horn wood..
Read the stone and wood (Seiryu Stone and horn wood.) as visual pathways before judging the plant mass. About 12 plant species are listed — fine for a multi-layer look, but keep a care log so slower species are not shaded out. Aquasoil Amazonia and Power Sand Special M. substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
ADA SOLAR RGB lighting sits at a high technical level for this large aquarium. CO₂ (Pollen Glass Beetle 50 mm diameter 4 b/s x 2 (10 hours)) — see our CO₂ systems if you want to clone a similar setup. Filter JBL Cristal Profi 1501 filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters. High-tech balance means nutrients, light, and CO₂ must stay in step; one weak leg often triggers spot or hair algae.
