A nano tank layout featuring Wild Trilogy, 3.5L, by Sam Harlen. Wabi Kusa Substrate Balls – Multiple Sizes set the depth lines of the frame.
The hardscape with Wabi Kusa Substrate Balls – Multiple Sizes sets the rhythm; planting should support those lines without burying them. The plant list (Vesicularia Ferriei, Taxiphyllum Sp., Eleocharis 'Belem', Ludwigia arcuata) favors background stem plants; packing the foreground too dense can make the tank feel heavy.
ONF Flat Nano and Natural Sunlight lighting sits at a approachable technical level for this nano tank. Low-tech tip: favor slow growers and avoid dense planting if filtration is modest.
With Nil, watch bioload: a nano tank drifts quickly if stocking is heavy.
Setup notes: Nestled in a neglected bonsai pot, a small family of wabi kusa grow wild together.
