When you say "the trunk" I'm guessing you mean the 2 swollen roots? The fatter 1 is as thick as my wrist so I'm not too sure how I would curve it, anyhow I'm happy with it so far -the gap between the 2 trunks/roots is getting smaller and eventually the 2 will fuse together.

It was given to me as a gift about 3 years ago, it was just a stump with many shoots coming off it. I chose a new leader shoot and just went with it. I'm still not %100 what I'm doing with it yet.

Can everyone go on-topic again, and could you please be friendly to each other, comments and critics are always welcome, but not in this way it is now occuring.

Please be friendly to each other, thank you! :)

PS: Ficus are famous for their very thick air-roots. Many Ficus bonsai that are selled in nursery's etc. are sold in this kind of trees. They look maybe a bit weird, it's just what you like, in another way it's unique because no other tree looks like this trees ;)
