Aquascape Inspired by Cascade Style Bonsai Tree

[Saluki2003]

I have some extra dry rock, Marco shelf rock and another bottle of GlueMasters super glue so I decided to make another aquascape. It’s a fun stress release type of artistic activity.

I grabbed some measurements for a few 30 gallon cube AIOs and made a mock-up out of cardboard.

Then I started looking through a TON of pictures of bonsai trees and noticed I really like the cascading style. So using that style as my inspiration I got to work putting the backbone of the structure together.

Using powdered crushed dry rock and thin gluemasters super glue, here’s what I’ve got so far. Still need to add the shelves but figured I’d start a progress thread here.

Beautiful so far! It reminds me of an abstract seahorse....
Looking forward to the evolution.
