This aquascape is based on the idea of a fallen branch. Mosses were used exclusively in this setup to create a textural appearance in keeping with the very small size of the fish. The Moss was attached to lava rock with hair nets tied off with fishing line, I find this method to be quickest.

It was also necessary to stock heavily with shrimps to keep the Moss in good health.
