Avoid stalk-type plants like hygro, amazons, anachris, etc.

One bite at the base, and the whole plant goes floating to the top.

I replaced these plants with swords, rosettes, ferns, and crypts.

Now the damage is minimized to an occassional leaf.



Anubias are also fairly sturdy. I'm also rather fond of Java fern.
