contents We look at a family of 3d $\mathcal{N}=4$ rank-0 orthosymplectic quiver gauge theories. We define a superconformal field theory (SCFT) to be rank-0 if either the Higgs branch or Coulomb branch is trivial. This family of non-linear orthosymplectic quivers has Coulomb branches that can be factorized into products of known moduli spaces. More importantly, the Higgs branches are all trivial. Consequently, the full moduli space of the smallest member is simply $\mathrm{(one-}F_4 \; \mathrm{instanton}) \times \mathrm{(one-}F_4 \; \mathrm{instanton})$. Although the $3d$ mirror is non-Lagrangian, it can be understood through the gauging of topological symmetries of Lagrangian theories. Since the 3d mirror possesses a trivial Coulomb branch, we discuss some implications for rank-0 4d $\mathcal{N}=2$ SCFTs and symplectic duality.
