So I was just starting to see shoots on my "floating island" which was my first incarnation of a safe platform for my shrimp fry. It wasnt a bad attempt but I found this on amazon and thought this might looks awesome if it works how I imagine.. excuse the dead-looking-ness, it is alive, the green shoots are coming through, even though it may be a new start... I've used some filter floss for it to anchor down, so watch this space...
