I'm setting up a second Planted Nano Tank :D. Details as follows:
Tank: Standard 2.5 Gallon Tank. I removed to Rim to give it that expensive ADA look.
Lighting: I'm running a CAD standard output fixture with three 10,000K 6w bulbs and one actinic bulb for night time.
CO2: I'm using another DIY system for this tank using one 2L bottle. It should produce around 2 BPS.
Substrate: It's a mix of ADA Aqua Soil Amazonia and black sand.
Filtration: The tank is running off an Azoo™ Mini Palm Filter, it runs at 16 GPH.
Heating: I'm using a small submersible heater pad

I don't have much of an idea on how I am going to Aqua Scape this tank, but I have a small piece of driftwood that I will cover with moss. Also, I have no clue what I will do for inhabitants, any idea's are welcome. My other Nano can be viewed here. I'll try to update this every few weeks. Here is a picture of the tank with the lights on, there is only the substrate in there and the hardware:

And here is one with the "night" lights on:

Feel free to ask any questions/comments!

o ok that allright

what does the potantial stock look like right now?

I'm still making decisions, I'm deciding between a group of dwarf shrimp (not sure on the sp. yet) and either a group of 5 Lampeye Killie's of maybe Micro Rasbora's.

As for plants, I am going to have a small piece of driftwood in the left corner with Christmas moss tied to it. Around the wood I'll have some small 1-2 inch mid-ground plants, haven't decided on a species yet. In the back right I'm going to do a stem plant, again I haven't decided on a species yet. In the the front I think I will try out some Glosso for a carpet effect.
