A large aquarium layout featuring Red Corner, 182.2L, by Jeon Hyoungjoo. The hardscape focus sits on Seiryu stone, Driftwood.
Hardscape (Seiryu stone, Driftwood) forms the skeleton — negative space between wood and stone guides the eye from foreground to depth. The plant list (Bolbitis Heudelotii, Didiplis diandra, Hydrocotyle tripartita 'Mini', Hygrophila pinnatifida) favors a mixed planting; packing the foreground too dense can make the tank feel heavy. None substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
LED 96W + 65W lighting sits at a approachable technical level for this large aquarium. Eheim 2213, Eheim ecco pro 2034 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.
Livestock (Pristella maxillaris) fits this large aquarium — prefer species that will not dig up the substrate and wreck hardscape lines.
