Many of the planted aquascapes on show feature what I can only describe as "root systems" - tangled masses of wood arranged to represent roots system breaking through the surface of the water and plunging into the substrate. Personally this is one of my favourite features as it allows the viewer to imagine the landscape outside of the viewable area and from a biotope point of view suggests an environment above the water line. However I digress. (and not for the first time) :?
My question is what are some of the ways that pieces of wood (or other material) can be connected together to achieve this when a single piece is either hard to find or prohibitively expensive?
My next question is - is it possible to use stainless steel in a planted aquatic environment or is any type of metal a big no-go area (i'm thinking stainless steel screws)?
