A nano tank layout featuring Aráucarias, 27.9L, by Clayton Medeiros. The composition is built around Local roots.
Read the stone and wood (Local roots) as visual pathways before judging the plant mass. The plant list (Rotala indica, Rotala green, rotala nanjenshan, myriophyllum sp. 'guyana') favors background stem plants; packing the foreground too dense can make the tank feel heavy.
chihiros lighting sits at a moderate-to-high technical level for this nano tank. Canister SunSun hbl 801 filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters. On nano tanks, ramp light intensity over the first 2–3 weeks to limit hair algae.
With Hyphessobrycon amandae – Tetra Foguinho, Tetra Kaiser, Neocaridina red cherry, watch bioload: a nano tank drifts quickly if stocking is heavy.
