I'm sure I've seen pics on here of moss attached to bogwood with dressmakers pins. Has anyone been successful at using this method to attach plants/mosses. I want to attach an anubias nana to a recess in some bogwood but the shape of the wood means it will be very hard to tie.

Do you have fish/snails/shrimp in your tank?

Why not use garden wire? The sort which is vinyl coated. ADA sell a brand of this stuff called "ADA Wood tight".

superglue is a brilliant way of attaching anubias to wood.

Re: Using pins to hold plants on bogwood
Thanks everyone. Decided to put the plant a further along the wood and used a clear rubber band. Will try to post pics tonight or tomorrow.
I know that superglue was an option but I lack the control and finesse reqired to use it neatly. Last time stuck my fingers to the wood and plants and ended up with a couple of suspect looking blobs that looked like bird droppings
