Perhaps reduce detail by being less harsh is not the best way to say it more less high contrast that shows up the various details in the tendrils of the gas filaments.
Various layerings but the main one of course is to blend in the core shot into the long exposure
using gaussian blur and masks.

Also, 90 sec Lum subs for the core with a 17" seems too much IMO. I did 30sec LRGB with my TOA and that was still bordering on too much.
