Just because its bobsai'd doesnt mean smaller it was trimmed rigoriously to get it that way and maybe even chemically dwarfed....bonsai isnt a buy it now, pretty forever, thing it takes dedication to keep them looking good...and wisteria only blossoms for about three weeks out of the...

Makes me wonder why danios are the only ones that come in other colors....

Hollow log attached to a piece of slate or tile would work......or if you can find one that sinks

The root system alone on wisteria is massive nevermind the actual size of the plant, iv eheared of people keeping them in a pot short term but water requirements and space issues will quickly make you change your mind. Wisteria is a vine that grows very quickly and if you did stick it on a table...

We were out and about at the lfs, and i happened to get the crazy idea of doing a planted for my then empty 20l.....well 200$ later the tanks finally set up with kitty litter substrate (first time for me) t5 dual bulbs, and some driftwood. I didnt put sand or gravel over the kitty litter and now...

Alot of carnivorous plants such as pitcher plant and venus traps like wet feet and humididty, you could also do dwarf papyrus, dwarf alocasias(such as alocasia polly), pothos, peace lillies, umbrella palm, marsh marigold, lobelia, or lustrife (check local regs) just off top of my head
