A nano tank layout featuring Santa Cruz – Between the great cliff, 12L, by Francisco Alexandre dos Santos Gomes. Standout plants include Staurogyne repens, Riccardia chamedryfolia, Hygrophila araguaia.
On the plant side, the layout leans toward a mixed planting with species such as Staurogyne repens, Riccardia chamedryfolia, Hygrophila araguaia — trim in layers so hardscape still breathes. Clear vinyl substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
Chihiros C2 RGB lighting sits at a moderate-to-high technical level for this nano tank. Dennerle Scapers Flow filtration needs enough turnovers without blasting the hardscape; browse matching filters. On nano tanks, ramp light intensity over the first 2–3 weeks to limit hair algae.
