A nano tank layout featuring Red Love, 9.5 L, by Jazmin De La Luz Armendariz. Dragon Stone and River Gravel set the depth lines of the frame.
Hardscape (Dragon Stone, River Gravel, Malaysian driftwood) forms the skeleton — negative space between wood and stone guides the eye from foreground to depth. The plant list (Eleocharis acicularis mini, Hemianthus Callitrichoides, Hydrocotyle tripartita mini, Anubia nana petit) favors foreground carpeting; packing the foreground too dense can make the tank feel heavy. Amazonia 2, ADA substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
Lámpara ONF Flat nano Pink lighting sits at a approachable technical level for this nano tank. Slim Flo tymax 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.
