I would like to have a natural look in my new 75g tank ultimately. I would love to have tree roots in it.
What I am going to do is go to rivers and creeks and look along the banks.
We have had so much rain and flooding at rivers that I should be able to find what I want.
What I am going to do is look along the banks where it has eroded the river bank back and washed back a cliff.
Where it has eroded back to trees and exposed their roots. I will bring my hand saw and cut a section or two the is about 8 or 10 inches taller than my aquarium.
Then I can trim it to height so it sits on the glass bottom flat and have it trimmed flat above the surface of the water.
If I can get sections that have small long roots and thick with even smaller root, it will make great hiding places for fry, or abused fish.
Has anyone here done this?
