A small aquarium layout featuring Whispers of the Valley (AGA 2025 #1204), 86 L (22.7 gal.), Aquatic Garden style, by Przemysław. Dragon stonw set the depth lines of the frame.
Read the stone and wood (Dragon stonw) as visual pathways before judging the plant mass. About 5 plant species are listed — fine for a multi-layer look, but keep a care log so slower species are not shaded out. Yokuchi soil substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
Skylight hyperbar lighting sits at a moderate-to-high technical level for this small aquarium. CO₂ (20ppm 24/7) — see our CO₂ systems if you want to clone a similar setup. Ultramax 1500 filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters.
