A nano tank layout featuring Splash of nature, 18 L (4.8 gal.), Paludarium style, by Mohammad Izzat Nasrullah Bin Mohammed Ismail. The composition is built around Seiryu stone.
Read the stone and wood (Seiryu stone) as visual pathways before judging the plant mass. About 2 plant species are listed — fine for a multi-layer look, but keep a care log so slower species are not shaded out. Gravel and lava stone substrate helps stabilize root-zone nutrition in the early weeks.
Diy led light lighting sits at a approachable technical level for this nano tank. CO₂ (No) — see our CO₂ systems if you want to clone a similar setup. Sobo submersible pump 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.
