yeah....u r rite bro....the water flowing down looks super unnatural...im trying to redo it so that it flows down the background.....need to find time after this month to do it....as for now.....im hoping the moss would thrive and grow.

Thank for the link. Do u know how he stick the soil onto the forms? Also if anyone can intro ways other then using forms cos the forms dont come cheap, I used 2 can of it @$9 each.

my tank is only 30cm x 20cm, nothing much for me to play.

Im not sure how he sticks it...either he sticks it when the foam is still wet....or he uses a type of spray glue..i rem theres this spray glue which comes in similar pressure cans..can get them from artfriend. Since its only for plants, im sure it can be used.

I will be doing something like the one in the link next month....will try to update once i start
