NOT a True Aquatic Plant???

I just bought 4 clumps of MONDO grass and someone said that it was not a real Aquarium grass? Hmmm. I guess If i don't do well with them I'll go Java Fern. ANY INPUT WOULD BE GREAT

They were right mondo grass (Ophiopogon ) is not an aquatic plant. there is some articles at http://www.thekrib.com/Plants/Plants/bog-plants.html#1

I have Mondo Grass in my backyard :D :D :D
You'd be surprised what terrestrials they sell as aquarium plants- they'll live a short while, though. Long enough to get some nice photos!

Yea, I unknowingly got mondo grass the first time I got live plants(with some anacharis). The were looking fine for some time, but after a few months, the leaves started dying and they were not good.

I've taken back the mondo grass and got a Java fern and one sagitteria or however you say it.

It's a shame that fish stores sell plants that are not true aquatic plants. There are several others I've seen them selling.
