Boutique Seiryu Stone is a refined variation of the classic Seiryu, admired for its pale tones, sharp ridges, and unique surface detail. Formed from ancient volcanic activity and textured by natural gas release, it carries a bold yet elegant look that sets it apart from darker Seiryu types. Its distinctive light coloration makes it a standout choice for rugged aquascapes, wild stone layouts, and Iwagumi-inspired builds, adding brightness and striking contrast within planted tanks.
