A nano tank layout featuring the canyon, 27L, by Georgios Angelis. mountain rocks set the depth lines of the frame.
Hardscape (mountain rocks) forms the skeleton — negative space between wood and stone guides the eye from foreground to depth. The plant list (Eleocharis acicularis mini, Riccardia chamedryfolia, Fissidens fontanus, Micranthemum Monte Carlo) favors mosses and epiphytes; packing the foreground too dense can make the tank feel heavy.
Chihiros C301 LED 14W lighting sits at a moderate-to-high technical level for this nano tank. Oase BioStyle 115 navy 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.
With Boraras maculatus, shrimps amano, watch bioload: a nano tank drifts quickly if stocking is heavy.
