    Anyone know what this is?

    It's the same plant that seems to have ended up in a few of my tanks. I think it came as part of a collection many years ago and just seems to survive. I originally thought it was some kind of crypt and just replanted it every time I did a new set up in an insignificant place. The roots on it...

    Planting Hairgrass

    I have had some in my tank for a while which just rushes to the surface. TBH I don't actually mind the look of it, it softens up the tank and provides a very natural feel just swaying about. The actual base of the plant never seems to get any bigger so never seen the point of trying to split the...
