Can you spot the 8 aquatic creatures in here? I know it’s blurry, but try. Not 8 species, just animals.

Nice anubias

The Anubis’s has grown almost an inch and a half since I got it!

Just a heads up, both the java ferns and the anubias need to be attached to wood or rock. If you bury their rhizome in substrate they will die. They are not substrate plants.

I swear I’ve seen them in substrate. Ok. Thanks.

everytime i tie mine to a piece of wood some stupid fish finds a way to untangle it now I just let it float around

 

[The Masked Shadow]

How do I tie it? Do I use string?

 

[Krismo962]

you can use fishing line or sewing thread

I take a rock, put the plant’s rhizome on top, put another rock on top. Or weave it into driftwood (manzanita). 50/50 success rate.
Superglue can be used.

I've used black cotton sewing thread and gel super glue to attach both anubias and java fern. Eventually the thread either comes loose or degrades into pieces so the gel super glue worked best for me.

Thanks! Guess I'll try this. can you reply to my 90g stocking thread? I know you are great with all fish, and want to get your opinion
