#WomanLifeFreedom

A mid-size aquarium layout featuring #WomanLifeFreedom, 178.1L, by Omid Niavarani. Standout plants include 1. Nymphoides sp. 'Taiwan'.

On the plant side, the layout leans toward a mixed planting with species such as 1. Nymphoides sp. 'Taiwan' — trim in layers so hardscape still breathes. Riccardia Chamedryfolia aka Mini pellia moss substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.

Week Aqua P series lighting sits at a approachable technical level for this mid-size aquarium. Aquael 2000 canister filter 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.
