Path away

A mid-size aquarium layout featuring Path away, 90 L (23.8 gal.), Aquatic Garden style, by Jayanta Ghosh. Iron wood set the depth lines of the frame.

Read the stone and wood (Iron wood) as visual pathways before judging the plant mass. About 13 plant species are listed — fine for a multi-layer look, but keep a care log so slower species are not shaded out. Netlia soil, AZ sand substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.

Chihiros wrgb slim 6o lighting sits at a high technical level for this mid-size aquarium. CO₂ (30 ppm CO2 running 1 hour before light on and turning off 1 hour before light out) — see our CO₂ systems if you want to clone a similar setup. EHEIM Classic Filter 350
With ceramic ring, Seachem Matrix 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.
