ANS Floating Planter for SG Nano and Shrimp Tanks

We like this floating planter for hobbyists who want greenery up top without committing to a full carpet or root system below. It drifts on the surface and holds a small clump of stems, moss or floating species in place, giving the casual movement that betta keepers and shrimp breeders enjoy. Coming in XS through L, it suits everything from a desktop nano in a condo to a wider breeding tub, letting you frame a corner without crowding the substrate.

In our warm, bright Singapore conditions, surface plants grow fast and shade the water, which helps tame the algae that ambient 27-29C tanks are prone to. The planter keeps that growth corralled so it does not block your light bar or clog filter intakes. Fry and shrimplets shelter among the dangling roots, and you can lift the whole ring out at water-change time rather than chasing loose plants across the surface.

For ideas on stocking it, see our guide to the best floating aquarium plants and how to build an aquascape with floating plants only. Pair it with the right dosing from our fertilizer range to keep those surface roots lush.
