I am looking into choosing a foreground plant and have been drawn towards Hemianthus callitrichoides. The growth rate seems quite fast which is something that I was looking for. However, I know that this plant only has small roots and was wondering if they anchor themselves quite robustly after a certain amount of time?

The eventual fish stock that I wish to introduce (German rams) have ruined some of my past aqua-scapes because they have bit into and ripped out the HC.

I would love to know if the HC becomes harder to uproot as time passes or if they always have a small and loose root layer?
