Just want to show you guys this outdoor bucket I set up a few months ago. It isn’t the best looking one but still do I think. The plants includes; Echinodorus ‘Rosé’, Echinodorus uruguayensis, Alocasia cucullata, Lepironia articulata, and another Sedge species that grow submerged underwater. During the afternoon, it exposed to direct sunlight which causes the water temperature to reaches 40C (or less, my Thermometer isn’t that great) and surprisingly the plants, ostracods and insect larvae survive and thrive.
