My friend is building a 10g nano tank, and he wants to make it monster, he plans to heavily plant it...but we have a problem, we can't come up with any solid ideas on what a good "nano" inhabitant would be. Any suggestions?

I have a 12" nano cube and I keep a pair of dario dario. Nice small fish that has cichlid tendencies. Busy fish. My tank is heavily planted and. Is only lit by a small office lamp. Problem is the plants grow so fast I'm constantly trimming it or it looks over grown. I also have a ton of cherry shrimp which I occasionally sell. I mainly keep the shrimp as feeders for the scarlet badis. They're hard to get off of live foods so the baby shrimp make constant snacks. If ur interested I can take some photos and send u some shrimp and plants. Good luck. Mini tanks are fun
Galaxy Rasbora, is what i would go with, in a nicely planted tank they would light it up with heir beautiful colors, i remember when they where first introduced and were super expensive but know they're fairly cheap, they are also easy to breed, but a little shy. You can google them but they have many names because they kept switching families for a while, i don't even think they're in the Rasbora family any more, but i could be wrong.
thanks for all the great suggestions guys! he ended up falling in love with scarlet badis, and got a few today
