Max’es Nano

A nano tank layout featuring Max’es Nano, 22L, by Maximilan Lobza. Standout plants include Bucephalandra unknown, Java ferns, Bolbitis.

On the plant side, the layout leans toward slow-growing epiphytes with species such as Bucephalandra unknown, Java ferns, Bolbitis — trim in layers so hardscape still breathes. Black paper substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.

Unknown lighting sits at a approachable technical level for this nano tank. Internal generic 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.

Maximilian (then age 9) set the tank up 13 months ago on his own; I (the father) helped with the substrate and with plants he chose. He chose the fauna too.The additional 2nd thru 5th images had been cropped but not edited otherwise
