 |

First tree scape, I am trying to make a whole tree, with lots of branches, not hidden with plants(moss) but exposed.
Working on the tree trunk and the roots, need some more adjustments, will update in coming times
Tank will be 2ftr as planned, may be moss only tank, as of now experimenting, so will give whole details with progress!!!

Hi Partha,
Get the vertical thin roots slightly away from the main 'stem'. That would make it look better. All the best. |

Its all been glued together using fevi-quick... Pico is very small tank. Smaller than a nano tank. As he had mentioned that it is only 6 lts of water. Roughly 1.5 Gallon tank. |

| Its too costly and also those woods are very thin, I doubt how it will stretch as xmass moss will do. What you say!!! |

Suraj ji, I wanted to make the main stem a bit fat, so kept the thin woods nearby, because without those it was not looking natural. Now its difficult to change, but thanks for your words.
Thanks all. |
