Hi all. I have some floating plants which are whirling around and getting stuck in places. I am hoping to find some DIY ideas for floating containers for them, similar to the floating discs for feeding, but bigger to hold the floating plants. Would appreciate all suggestions. Thanks!

You could try using airline tubing to make a large ring. To connect it into a ring, use a sliver of air line tubing or a straight air line connector.

This is exactly how I do it! You can also add a suction cup if you need it to stay in a specific spot.
Aquariums:
• 6 gallon corner tank with super red cherry shrimp & male endlers
• 40 gallon breeder; empty until we move
