A nano tank layout featuring Mangrove, 27L, by Asaftei Adrian Cristian. The hardscape focus sits on driftwood and slate.
Hardscape (driftwood and slate) forms the skeleton — negative space between wood and stone guides the eye from foreground to depth. On the plant side, the layout leans toward mosses and epiphytes with species such as Weeping moss, Anubias nana mini, Rotala rotundifolia — trim in layers so hardscape still breathes.
2x tetronic led light 3800 lighting sits at a approachable technical level for this nano tank. Tetratex ec 600 plus 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 Microrasbora erytromicron, watch bioload: a nano tank drifts quickly if stocking is heavy.
