Will it hold?

[longstocking]

I just tied some anubias to some shells I have. I have more shells than rock :lol:

My question is .. will it work? Thought it might look kinda cool as well. Will it hold and will the plant survive?

Has anyone tried this? Or seen this work?

I haven't tried shells, but I have anubias tied to all sorts of things. As long as no parts are buried in the substrate, it should be fine.

If they'll bond to stone, shells shouldn't be a problem.

More porous and the calcium shouldn't offer a problem either.

That was my thinking as well...

I'm trying java fern as well

If it works well, maybe in a few months I'll bring one into auction. I used small and big shells. The ones with big shells should look really cool ! At least I think so

I also tied some to your geo stones Sam Those won't be going into auction :lol:
