If you want to know more , please feel free to ask anything.
I’ve attached a pic, but I think it better shows the video below.

 
This setup is done 3 weeks ago, but the plants are reused from another setup that had about a year.
Here I come to you with a picture of the setup at one week distance.
The wood is darker now and I’m thinking to cover it with some moss.
I also need to trim the rotala to make it bushy.
Please let me know your feedback!

I do love rotala, have it in my 25l and as a canopy in my 125. Looks best with its purple tones under the leaves.
