A large aquarium layout featuring Thé maze, 182.2L, by Tariq Lbairha. The hardscape focus sits on Volcanic stone, sunken wood, ordinary soil.
Read the stone and wood (Volcanic stone, sunken wood, ordinary soil, sand) as visual pathways before judging the plant mass. The plant list (Hm hydroctel tripatita hydroctil virticala Christmas moss rotala HR rotala walich tenelus anubias) favors mosses and epiphytes; packing the foreground too dense can make the tank feel heavy. Blanche substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
Led light lighting sits at a approachable technical level for this large aquarium. Tetra ex 700 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 (8 guby) fits this large aquarium — prefer species that will not dig up the substrate and wreck hardscape lines.
Setup notes: Peace, I made an effort by providing the necessary elements to build this basin, and I relied a lot on my imagination to draw the final shape. I hope you like it.
