Finally getting around to posting a build journal for the dripwall that I constructed over my 150g
Here’s the “before” picture:

Start of the foam background:

After carving:

Painted with tinted drylok:

Used black pond foam to attach driftwood:

Used silicone to attach a wicking fabric (similar to hygrolon) as growing medium for plants (the pins were just to temporarily hold it in place while the silicone dried)

And installed on a wooded frame above the tank
