A nano tank layout featuring Minion, 4 L (1.1 gal.), Wabi Kusa style, by arih setyo nugroho. The hardscape focus sits on Santigi wood.
Read the stone and wood (Santigi wood) as visual pathways before judging the plant mass. About 8 plant species are listed — fine for a multi-layer look, but keep a care log so slower species are not shaded out. Soil & cocopite substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
DIY lighting sits at a approachable technical level for this nano tank. Low-tech tip: favor slow growers and avoid dense planting if filtration is modest.
Use the specs table as a shopping checklist for equivalent gear — then explore Wabi-Kusa.
