Idea of freshwater macrophytes products for sale (mini project)

On 5th November 2015, every group had presented their ideas on how to sell freshwater macrophytes products. This is the ideas presented by our group, Aqua Flora :




Bottled Water Plants
(source :http://www.dreamalittlebigger.com/ )




Materials
Water plant
Bottle with a lid (cork)
Sand
Pebbles
Small piece of driftwood (choice)
Distilled water

Type of aquatic plant used:
 Anubias congensis
Why Anubias congensis?
- Can be partially submerged,
bottom half is in water, but the top is free in the air.
-Hardy

Methods
Take your jar and layer your sand and pebbles.
Place your plant inside of the jar and situate your driftwood around the roots .

Fill the bottle with distilled water to the level you’re happy with.
Again this Anubias can be fully or partially submerged.
The sand is going to mix up as you pour the water in and it will be cloudy at first, but never fear… it will clear.
Place your lid firmly in place and set wherever you want this to hang out and decorate your space .


After a year


ESTIMATED max COST
Bottle : RM3.00/bottle
Plant : RM5.00/plant
Sand : RM4.00/pack *
Pebbels : RM4.00/pack*
Driftwood : RM2.00/pack

Total max Cost/set : RM12.00

*This idea is acceptable by our lecturer, Dr Natrah Ikhsan :)
