Where are my fish?

A large aquarium layout featuring Where are my fish?, 240L, by Ryszard Olkusnik. Standout plants include 1. Hygrophila polysperma 'Sunset'.

On the plant side, the layout leans toward a mixed planting with species such as 1. Hygrophila polysperma 'Sunset' — trim in layers so hardscape still breathes. Black foil substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.

2x Chihiros WRGB2 (45 and 60) lighting sits at a moderate-to-high technical level for this large aquarium. Sump behind tank filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters.

Lighting, filtration, substrate, and plant details sit in the specs table below, or browse more layouts in Collection.
