Hi, I've had this frizzy grass in my tank for about a year now, I'm not too sure what it's called or what to do with it. It currently serves greatly for shrimp to hang out and breed there. It grows very fast and attaches itself to other objects.
I am wanting to make a start on a java moss wall, but have been thinking about just using this stuff, if not that should i plant it in the substrate like grass.
Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

Yes, I agree - it looks like it's trying to start a wall all by itself....! ;) :D
