Shadow Nano Stone

WIO Shadow Nano Stone, is a rare metamorphic slate with a naturally flat, layered structure and a stunning array of mineral tones-from silvery greys and soft browns to subtle bluish hues. These delicate color shifts give it a multi-dimensional character that reflects light with natural softness and elegance.

Easily splittable, Shadow Nano Stone allows creators to craft intricate stone slides, mini cliff formations, or fine detailing in high-precision aquascapes. Its natural stratification and crisp edges make it ideal for naturalistic landslides, weathered mountain slopes, or subtle rocky textures in nano tanks under 40 L.

Each stone is inert, pre-washed, and safe for all aquatic life. It will not alter water chemistry, making it a perfect choice for aquascapers seeking visual complexity without compromising stability. Whether building a dramatic geological wall or a soft, shadowed path, Shadow Nano Stone adds sculptural depth and timeless atmosphere to any micro landscape.

• Color: Subtle silver, brownish, bluish, and mineral shadows.
• Nano Scale: Sized ≈ 3–10 cm, ideal for tanks under 40 L / 10 gal.
• Slate Texture: Flat, stratified surfaces ideal for stacked or fractured layouts.
• Versatile Crafting: Easily broken into smaller pieces for landslides and detail.
• Pre-Washed: Clean and ready to use, no soaking required.
• Safe: Inert and safe for all fish, shrimp, and aquatic animals.
• Water Chemistry: Does not affect pH or hardness.
• Versatile Use: Perfect for aquariums, terrariums, paludariums, and bowls.
• Packaging: 2 kg bag with mixed-size stones.
• Pairing Tip: Combine with WIO Silver Shadow Stone or WIO Gravel for layered terrain. Use WIO Accents Warm Grey for seamless transitions and multitone detailing.

• Preparation
  – Rinse briefly to remove any transport dust.
  – Pre-washed, no soaking needed.
  
   
• Placement Tips
  – Use larger flat stones as base structure; layer fractured edges for texture.
  – Place over substrate or WIO LandForm, avoid direct contact with glass.
  – Create naturalistic slides by blending different sizes and layering angles.
  – Secure with WIO ScapeGlue with FuseColor for stable, sculpted layouts.
  
   
• Layout Ideas
  – Ideal for cliffs, geological layers, or eroded hill designs.
  – Create multicolored landslides with small fractured pieces.
  – Blend with moss for natural shadow contrast.
  
   
• Maintenance Ideas
  – During cleaning, gently use WIO cleaning tools to lift any debris from stone surfaces.

Notes
– Each bag contains a unique mix-expect natural variation in tone, layering, and fracture lines.
– Easily crafted into smaller fragments-handle with care when shaping.
