The spirit Carrie’s on

A small aquarium layout featuring The spirit Carrie’s on, 84L, by Stephano Diaz. Standout plants include Rotala: blood, green, orange.

On the plant side, the layout leans toward background stem plants with species such as Rotala: blood, green, orange — trim in layers so hardscape still breathes. White paper substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.

Chihiros vivid 2 lighting sits at a moderate-to-high technical level for this small aquarium. OASE filtrosmart 200 filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters.
