what can I use to keep my plants in the gravel? they always like to come up,
alot of the plants available in my area dont have the big root balls like
the swords do, those stay down in my tank with no problem.

Is it ok to use those metal weights that they come with? I worry they will
rust or get metal in the tank somehow.



use 1/8" stainless steel u-shaped pins to hold them in place. You will
have to make them yourself out of s.s. tig rod or wire. Folded length
of about 4" or less should work well.
