A large aquarium layout featuring Split Serenity (AGA 2023 #725), 200L, by Styrbjörn Käll. The hardscape focus sits on ADA amaznonia II, seriyu stone, mangrove wood.
Read the stone and wood (ADA amaznonia II, seriyu stone, mangrove wood, iron wood, redmoore root) as visual pathways before judging the plant mass. The plant list (Rotala bonsai) favors background stem plants; packing the foreground too dense can make the tank feel heavy. white film substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
LED (chihiros WRGB II), run at 80% 8h per day lighting sits at a moderate-to-high technical level for this large aquarium. Fluval 206, mixed biological and mechanical filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters.
Livestock (iriatherina werneri (20x), amano shrimp (10x), Neocaridina "Sakura Red" (unknown count)) fits this large aquarium — prefer species that will not dig up the substrate and wreck hardscape lines.
Setup notes: Ferilization: Tropica Specialized
