Dwarf Hairgrass

[edwardorino]

Argh! my Dwarf Hairgrass keeps getting uprooted in my 10g! I don't know if its the Panda Cory or if its the Malaysian Trumpet Snails!

I have the grass planted in Eco-Complete, any suggestions?

My guess would be the corys, I got Malaysian Trumpet Snails also and have hair grass also and n on of my grass was uprooted before. Try tying it down to a big rock or some thing thats heavy then bury it?

I've seen cories uproot hairgrass, they just bulldoze their way through it.

How about buying new hairgrass and burying it in the pot, but without the pot? (You know, in the stuff its planted in.)

You mean rock wool and I think that's doable. I flipped through this beginner's guide to aquarium plants and it said that you should take the plants out of the pot, cut the rockwool into smaller pieces (so you have smaller bunches of plants) and then plant these into your substrate just enough to cover the rockwool
