    Hi guys,

    I am setting up a paludarium and now searching for suitable plants.

    Need help to ID this plant? Is this some sort of mondo grass?

    How to keep it "alive" in a tank? By keeping the leaves above water and the roots submerged or do I have to keep it in moist gravel?

    Thanks.

    This is a Rush plant, Japanese Rush, think also known as mondo grass. They are terrestrial and love their roots wet. They should do well in a paludarium setup. I am trying them out in a hang on filter now...
