A large aquarium layout featuring Time of roots, 182.3L L, by Ki-Yeong Kim. Nature Sand white and blue dragon stone set the depth lines of the frame.
Hardscape (Nature Sand white, blue dragon stone, drift wood) forms the skeleton — negative space between wood and stone guides the eye from foreground to depth. The plant list (Vesicularia sp, Vesicularia dubyana ‘, Christmas’, Riccardia chamedryfolia) favors a mixed planting; packing the foreground too dense can make the tank feel heavy. Neo Soil Compact premium plants, Nature Sand white substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
Chihiros RGB vivid 2, 8h/1day 130w RGB lighting sits at a moderate-to-high technical level for this large aquarium. QQ-AQUA BC 1500 filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters.
