Hi Vez

SHould look interesting with the hornworth grown in. Is that a ball of moss on that driftwood?

You also need to get your anubius out of the substrate.

Have a look at this when tying moss http://www.aquaticquotient.com/forum/showthread.php/50065-Tying-Moss It makes the moss grow better and look better in the end.

Anubias are plants that grow on things like rocks and wood and do not like their roots in the ground. It may even rot away.

The roots will not rot. Only if the Rhizome is covered with sand will it cause problems

will post it tonight, really easy! and it works like CELL C, hahahaha

[Khalid]

how do i get it to grow on the wood?
wrap some black cotton with the anubias rhizome to the wood.
The roots will eventually attach to the wood and grow downwards into the gravel.
The cotton will gradually disintegrate in the water

wow, thanks Khalid

did not know this, as i got the plant with the tank,,,,,,,, are they cool plants??

Khalid , did not mean roots. Just found that people who does not know that the plants does not go into the gravel rarely knows what a rhizome are so I just say roots :)
