A large aquarium layout featuring Tempest, 396 L (104.6 gal.), Aquatic Garden style, by Debraj Ghosh. The composition is built around Dragon Rocks with Lava Rocks.
Read the stone and wood (Dragon Rocks, Lava Rocks, Malyasian Drift Wood, Indian Bog Wood, Honey Comb Wood…) as visual pathways before judging the plant mass. About 25 plant species are listed — fine for a multi-layer look, but keep a care log so slower species are not shaded out. ADA Amazonia, ADA Power Sand, ADA Colorado Sand, Aqua gravel substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
