    Really eager to see someone post their HG pics for a look!!!
    HC is still the best but they do take a long while to form a lawn.

    I voted other, due to the fact they didnt include Eleocharis Parvula. I know its classed as Hairgrass, but its a great species and should be separate

    I gave in with HC due to it going brown and my fish constantly uprooting it. 10 pots consequently binned! *sigh*

    I have no idea what is the name of this foreground plant but it grows very easily and quickly too. Can anyone ID this plant?

    hc.
    Yishun Aqua Star Trading sells in a packet. Across Khoo Teck Puah
    C328 one shop sells in a packet, another one sells in block form or driftwood tied form or one packet. Like market selling vegetable, quite interesting. I just went down this week to both places.

    can advice how is the maintainance like? Do you have to trim it often? How thick will it grow? My glosso tank has been very high maintainance, every 2 weeks a small trimming, every 4 weeks will be a major trimming.

    Re: What is your favourite foreground plant?

    I'm thinking of switching to HC as glosso is too high maintenance, every 2 weeks have to trim or it will grow very tall.

    My favourite is HC followed by hairgrass.
    Know that glosso can produce a nice thick carpet; but mine doesn't.
    Do we plant close to each other and only a small bud. Have seen a pro done that.
