I have this type of filter:
As of now, I have no rocks, driftwood, or anything but live plants in my tank. I've bought some java fern and attached it using string, to the plastic tube that runs to the bottom of the tank, seen above. I have the plant facing me, imagine the fern's roots facing the back of the filter, and the plant would be coming at you, if you're looking at the above model. Sorry if that's confusing.
With this, I'm trying to make a really unique setup that I think could look really nice. The problem is, will it work? I have some of the roots wrapped a bit with the string, others are near by. I have no problem with the string there, but either way, will the roots attach and let the plant grow out? Am I out of my mind?
