A nano tank is generally a reef tank that is rather small by typical standards. I think that in general, 10 gallons and less is definitely considerd a nano tank, but others think that this number is higher such as 20 gallons and under. Others say 30 and under. But to sum up it is basically the smaller end of the reef tank scale.

imo a nano is 10 gallons to 29 gallons
anything 9 gallons or under i would call a pico reef

Could small FOWLR tanks be concidered Nanos, or is it just reefs?
