WERBEVIDEO | In this part of *The Trinity*, I continue transforming 3 identical aquariums into 3 completely different aquascapes.
This time I'm building the two remaining hardscapes. On the left, I create the first draft of a diorama-inspired Iwagumi using Maloti Stones. On the right, I build a Ryuboku composition with Juniper Wood and Mini Landscape (Seiryu) Stones, explaining the design process, composition, and the thinking behind every major decision.
The layouts aren't finished yet—but preparing the hardscapes first allows me to accurately plan the planting that comes next.
