Um cement will drag the clay down....While finishing up my waterfall on my build I noticed that when the mortar is slopped on it kindof looks like clay so for those who are looking for a more water resistant alternative to kitty litter why not use cement?
I had in mind smoothe concrete lolagreed, and cement is very porous and holds tons of moisture... but pH can be a pain
true and once you seal it, it is more like plastic... i guess im just bias after my clay BG failI had in mind smoothe concrete lol
It wouldn't hold as much moisture as a clay background tho right?
This is very dependent on the clay used, how it is applied and the frequency of misting. I've used it for drip walls with great success but then I took my time to establish it..... When I some-day build a viv, I love the look of the clay backgrounds, but I would not expect it to hold up to repeated applications of an afternoon rainshower,
