OVERVIEW

Inspired by the start of winter, this layout blends our love for traditional aquascapes with a contemporary twist. Four oversized Hakkai Stones take center stage and intentionally move away from the basic principles of a classic Iwagumi aquascape.

In a typical Iwagumi planted aquarium, you would expect an odd number of stones, a clear sense of scale, and a more minimal layout. For this setup, we incorporated four different types of Ultum Nature Systems Controsoil natural sands to create a smooth shift from light fine sand to darker stone tones, adding subtle detail and contrast throughout the scene.

The final look resembles a grassy meadow touched by the first snowfall of the season. The Hakkai Stones add visual flow with their rich textures and naturally formed pores shaped by years of erosion.
