Saw this on a overseas site. Has anybody used aluminium, and straps to build a flower box in their filter?

Hi Adi
It wnt work for the larger type plants unless you make extra supprts. only smaller stuff like water lillies and maybe some irrisis.
My whole setup collapsed with the elephant ears fortunately they are still in water.
