Avatar Mountains of China

A nano tank layout featuring Avatar Mountains of China, 12L, by Leon Seiter. Dragon stones set the depth lines of the frame.

The hardscape with Dragon stones sets the rhythm; planting should support those lines without burying them. The plant list (Riccardia Chamedryfolia) favors a mixed planting; packing the foreground too dense can make the tank feel heavy. White ADA background substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.

ONF Flat One lighting sits at a approachable technical level for this nano tank. Hang on filter filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters. Low-tech tip: favor slow growers and avoid dense planting if filtration is modest.

With Snails, watch bioload: a nano tank drifts quickly if stocking is heavy.
