Need some inspiration or ideas for your next nano aquarium? These 20 beautiful nano aquascapes were part of ANAC 2022! (Aquaflora Nano Aquascaping Contest) A different type of aquascaping competition where contestants go to Aquaflora to pick up a complete scape set (tank, light, filter, plants, hardscape, substrate) which they then take home, setup, and after 3 months they reveal their final aquascape at the Vivarium exhibition in Rosmalen, NL.

Fish provide movement and dynamism, in contrast to the stability and staticity provided by hardscape and plants. unfortunately fish will get stressed if included during the exhibition

I gotta say without any fish, these tanks have a very similar vibe to an uncanny valley kind of feeling. The designs are stunning, but it just doesn't quite sit right with ur psyche. It's like they feel kind of dead or abandoned or something.
