Hi guys this is one of the vivs iam working on right now....made a few mistakes and learned new things....so next one will look much better....my photgraphy skills are really bad....so apologies in advance.
Step 1- siliconed 3 sides
Step 2- covered with Great stuff added planters and ledges
You can see how i made a small area on the sides for filter hose etc
Step 3- sculpting of GS and putting concrete mix on the rock wall and using upside down pots as base for egg crate fake bottom. Also added few of the sticks. After letting the concrete set i washed it profusely with vinegar and then with water to balance out the ph and all.
Step 4- Adding some dried soil and sphagum moss to the wall to give different texture and also will be easier to stick live moss to it.
Sorry forgot to take a pic with just eggcrate on the the flowerin pots
Step 5- placed the eggcrate fake bottom on the flowering pots and added wire mesh and then peat moss and sphagnum moss on to it....Also decided to add a layer of sphagnum moss in the fron to hide the water but then too it off cuz it was fallin apart.
Step 6- rearraged things added a few plants and gravel and this is how it looks now....still stuff to be done to it. Ill paint the front a lil bit with black paint to hide the eggcrate and water underneath it.
