A small aquarium layout featuring Tanjung Karang Timur, 73 L (19.3 gal.), Aquatic Garden style, by Novendy. The hardscape focus sits on Turly Stone.
Hardscape (Turly Stone) forms the skeleton — negative space between wood and stone guides the eye from foreground to depth. About 4 plant species are listed — fine for a multi-layer look, but keep a care log so slower species are not shaded out. Master Soil Aquasoil substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
Chihiros Vivid MIni II lighting sits at a high technical level for this small aquarium. CO₂ (pressurized CO2, 2bps/second) — see our CO₂ systems if you want to clone a similar setup. Jecod 1200ph 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.
