Presenting you my new scape. :wink:
Dimensions are 35x29x22(h) cm - 23 liters or 6 gallons.
For lighting i am using led pannel 10W.
Filtration will be Eden 501.
CO2 pressurised 500g bottle and atomizer.
Stones are Seiryu, most of them are treated with hammer. :hihi:
I am planning to plant it mostly with Fissidens fox, and maybe some other moss/plants.

Hardscape:

Thanks guys ;) All equipment on their place. Filter seems to doing great job - water is crystal clear! CO2 set up on 1 bps which gives me dark green DC. I think it should be enough for mosses.
Left only making moss bombs (gluing fissidens on small lava rocks) :)

Thanks all!

Very nice! Maybe try to do a nice sky blue backdrop with white small white clouds and add some plants to fill in the foreground banks. Ah, I need to start getting into making nice mini aquascapes. Any plans on livestock?
Thanks for suggestion. Might look great. I will try to do it for the final photo. :wink: Yes, foreground will be covered by moss. And for livestock i am thinking to put Boraras brigittae, Clithon corona snails and some colorful shrimps:icon_smil


Wow that is GORGEOUS! Makes me want to stand on top and sing "The hills are aliiiiiive...."
LOL :hihi:

This really is brilliant.

I've been working on a similar scape for some time now (lots of rock, path down the center, similar sized tank).

Anyway, my 2c concerns your path. imho is think it maintains its width for too long while passing through the middle of the tank. I think the path should be consistently (and gradually) getting less wide as is progresses towards the back of the tank. A few tiny adjustments would address this.

What technique did you use to break the rocks? Planning on starting a nano as well and I have about 15 pounds of Seiryu and 20 pounds of Ohko to play with. I'm looking to get the sharp shapes like you have.
I have used 1kg hammer. If you want to get oblong pieces you can try with chisel. ;)
