A nano tank layout featuring Nostalgia, 12L, by Sarathi Ghosh. ADA V2 and ADA Sand set the depth lines of the frame.
Hardscape (ADA V2, ADA Sand, Fodostone) forms the skeleton — negative space between wood and stone guides the eye from foreground to depth. The plant list (Monte Carlo, Eleocharis montevidensis, Rotala Tulunadensis, Rotala Bonsai) favors background stem plants; packing the foreground too dense can make the tank feel heavy.
Chihiros C2 RGB lighting sits at a moderate-to-high technical level for this nano tank. Sunsun 603B filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters. High-tech nanos react badly to sudden large water changes — keep a steady schedule.
With Shrimps, Galaxy Raspbora, Blueeye pascai, watch bioload: a nano tank drifts quickly if stocking is heavy.
