A mid-size aquarium layout featuring Walk Firmly, 108L, by Emmanuel Calma. Seiryu Stones and Driftwoods set the depth lines of the frame.
The hardscape with Seiryu Stones sets the rhythm; planting should support those lines without burying them. The plant list (Marsilea hirsuta, Monte carlo, Rotala rotundifolia, fissidens fontanus) favors mosses and epiphytes; packing the foreground too dense can make the tank feel heavy. Colored card board substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
Week Aqua a430 lighting sits at a approachable technical level for this mid-size aquarium. Fluval 107 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.
With Pearl Gaurami, watch bioload: a mid-size aquarium drifts quickly if stocking is heavy.
