show us some pics
it doesnt get to big and spreads out as far as i know
ive got some grass not sure what kind and it grows slow as hell and some of my other plant grow like weeds

If its really dwarf hairgrass it stays short only like 3 inches I think and it needs to be trimmed periodically. It can spread to a full carpet covering your substrate if all its needs are met.

it takes a long time to spread. Mine grows pretty quickly, I havn't trimed it in about 2 weeks and it's about 2 inches tall.

they grow slow unless you have fertilizer in the gravel and co2..but more importantly fertilizer

Good substrate, (appropriate substrate might be a better word), co2, and high lighting are generally recommended.

Not tolerant of algae, or too coarse of substrate. Will spread slowly if at all under the wrong circumstances.
