New Plants

Just got some new plants today, Wisteria, Anubias and Mondo Grass. I bought the Mondo Grass without any prior knowledge of it and after a little late research I am a little worried. I read that it is not a true aquatic plant. I really like the look of it and am hoping to keep it. Does anyone have any experience with this plant.

Yes, I had mondo grass. Pulled the final one out today, it will eventually rot. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

2 of mine died in 2 weeks the third lasted 2 months.

welcome to the forum :D unfortunately, mondo isnt a true aquatic plant and in time will eventually rot in the tank. Like all great myths, people arent honest, such as people who work at petstores. When money walks...

fortunately!!!!!! people on this forum are very nice and will be more than glad to help you have a successful aquarium experience :D

It is possible to keep the mondo grass if u pull it out and plant it half submerged every couple of months and then move it back in.
