    Description

    Make your Rio 125 a living centrepiece

    Picture your Juwel Rio 125 filled with living greenery: plants framing your favourite piece of wood, softening the edges of rockwork and creating depth as your fish move through the leaves. This collection gives you the plants to start building that scene, with 20 or 30 live aquarium plants to suit the look you want.

    Whether you are planting a new aquarium or giving an existing layout a fresh start, buying a collection brings your planting together in one order. Choose a lighter, more open feel or give greenery a bigger role from the outset.

    Which collection is right for you?

    Essential – 20 plants
    For a balanced layout where plants, wood and rockwork share the attention. Create planted areas around your main features while leaving open space to enjoy the shape of your aquascape. A good choice if you like watching a more lightly planted aquarium develop over time.

    Full – 30 plants
    For a richer planted look with more greenery from the start. With 50% more plants than Essential, you have more to work with when building groups, adding depth and filling out your layout. Choose Full if the lush planted look is what drew you to keeping an aquarium.

    A display you can enjoy watching grow

    The pleasure of a planted aquarium is seeing it develop: fresh leaves appearing, planted groups filling out and your layout gaining character. Give each plant room to grow, and let your Rio 125 become a scene you look forward to spending time in front of.

    Choose Essential for an open, balanced start, or Full to make plants the centre of attention.

    Product FAQs

    Helpful details before you buy.

    How many plants are included?

    Choose Essential for 20 live aquarium plants or Full for 30. Full includes 10 extra plants — 50% more than Essential — for greater planting coverage.

    Should I choose Essential or Full for my Juwel Rio 125?

    Choose Essential if you want an open layout with planted areas around your wood and rockwork. Choose Full if you want plants to be the main feature, with more greenery and fuller groups from the start. The space taken up by your hardscape will also influence how densely you can plant.

    Will my aquarium look fully grown as soon as I plant it?

    Your layout will develop as the plants settle in and grow. Full gives you more plants to work with at the start, but both options need time and suitable growing conditions to fill out. Leave space between plants for new growth.

    Can I use this collection to refresh an existing Rio 125?

    Yes. You can use the collection for a new layout or to replant an existing Rio 125. Consider how much space your current plants and hardscape already occupy when choosing between 20 and 30 plants.

    How should I arrange the plants?

    Plan your layout around your wood or rocks, keeping open areas where you want to see your fish. Position plants according to their individual growth habits and planting instructions, leaving room for growth. Follow the requirements of each plant rather than planting every variety in the same way.
