The Fallen Giant (AGA 2023 #337)

A large aquarium layout featuring The Fallen Giant (AGA 2023 #337), 360L, by Riswandi. The composition is built around Mocha Soil with Santigi Wood.

Read the stone and wood (Mocha Soil, Santigi Wood, Gurek Stone, Silika Sand) as visual pathways before judging the plant mass. The plant list (Bucephalandra Brownie Red, Cryptocorine Wendtii Green, Tenelus, Hair Grass) favors slow-growing epiphytes; packing the foreground too dense can make the tank feel heavy. No Background substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.

Chihiros WRGB II X 2 lighting sits at a moderate-to-high technical level for this large aquarium. Fluval FX 4 & Atman 3337 filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters.

Livestock (Red Nose, Neon Tetra, Red Cherry Shrimp) fits this large aquarium — prefer species that will not dig up the substrate and wreck hardscape lines.

Setup notes: Inspiration from Borneo Forest that have many spot is no human touch
