Vase Aquarium — Custom Nano Aquascape by CG Aquariums
This vase aquarium was designed and built by CG Aquariums as a compact, standalone planted tank. Set on a Fluval Stratum substrate with a fine sand cap, the hardscape centers around a piece of cholla wood, creating natural texture and a focal point in a small glass footprint.
The planted layout includes Anubias nana petite, parrot's feather, and dwarf hairgrass — a mix of low-maintenance plants suited to nano and no-filter setups. The finished vase is stocked with a small school of Least Killifish (Heterandria formosa), one of the smallest livebearing fish in the world, making them a natural fit for this kind of miniature aquascape.
5-Gallon Planted Aquarium Kit — Custom Aquascape by CG Aquariums
This 5-gallon aquarium kit (PetSmart starter kit) was transformed into a fully planted nano aquascape by CG Aquariums. Built on a Fluval Stratum substrate for healthy root growth, the hardscape features black spiderwood and elephant stone to create natural depth and structure in a small footprint.
The planted layout includes Anubias nana, Ludwigia white, dwarf Vallisneria (nana Vallisneria), and hairgrass — a mix of easy-care foreground, midground, and background plants that make this a great low-maintenance option for beginner and intermediate aquarists alike.
10-Gallon Custom Aquascape — Built for a Paralyzed Veterans of America National Service Officer
This 10-gallon custom aquarium was designed and built by CG Aquariums for a National Service Officer with the Paralyzed Veterans of America. Housed in a rimless AquaZen 10-gallon tank, the aquascape sits on a Fluval Stratum substrate capped with sand, with Seiryu stone and spiderwood forming the hardscape for a natural, layered look.
The planted layout is lush and varied, featuring Monte Carlo, dwarf Vallisneria (nana Vallisneria), Anubias nana, Java fern, Samolus red, hairgrass, curly lucky bamboo, and subwassertang — a mix of foreground carpeting plants, midground texture, and background height for a full, established aquascape feel. Lighting is handled by a 12-inch Hygger LED, while filtration comes from an AquaMiracle UV aquarium filter with a built-in timer for consistent water clarity.
