Materials I used a piece of ADA's branchwood as the main aquascaping element-- the branchwood is covered in subwassertang inside the aquarium and then exits the surface of the water where a diversity of miniature epiphytic terrestrial plants are attached and hang their roots into the water column, growing hydroponically.
