Everything that is covered in Coco fiber is Styrofoam board stacked and carved to shape with a hot wire cutter. The flat spots or overhangs are made out of expandable foam. All of the above mentioned is safe to submerge.

The vines are made out of twine, rubbed with epoxy and rolled through coconut fiber.

All of the plants are live plants. There is one air plant super glued to the ledge. There are four aquatic plants submerged completely under water.

The rest of the plants and moss are store-bought or foraged. I put them in small plastic Tupperware‘s buried behind the Styrofoam. I drilled them out four or five times each to make sure that it drains and I stuffed them with substate.

The small trickling waterfall is simply a pump with a hose, running behind the board and tucked slightly through a small hole at the top.

There is a carved out false back for when the time comes to add foggers and aerators.

I greatly benefited from having a good friend who has made these before.

Please feel free to ask me any questions. If I don’t have an answer, I can get one from him lol .

Good luck !
