This book can help set up a nano aquarium but I remain missing information in some areas and I think far too technical in others. If some plants are described that remains very incomplete picture, especially not with regard to each of them and no mention of their adult size or growth. Ditto for the fish no water temperature .... I had so much useful information on the simple free booklet with Dennerie.
I have a 10 liter nano aquarium for 6 months with 2 neons, 2 and 1 Corydora platys and all these people live very well. All you need is a good filter, a pump and a heater, change the water regularly and clean the sand surface and lots of plants.
