Hornwort?

[bettasaur]

Does anyone have any problems with Hornwort snagging their betta's fins? Mine feels a little prickly. Sometimes I can see Bettasaurus almost...struggling..to get through it like he's getting stuck in it. He's got such ridiculous finnage though, it's not surprising.
I'm thinking about taking it out.

There very soft I would think substrate has a higher chance.

Hornwort did a number on one of my boy's fins... he was also having a problem with brittle fins at the time because of petsmart so.. up to you, personally, I prefer anacharis

Yeah Benzema's scales were falling off with the hornwort but that is because I had way too much of it in there... once I removed some it was better

I have anacharis in there and he LOVES it. I'm about to go take that hornwort out though. I'm treating him for mild fin rot right now & his fins are just ragged. I'm sure the hornwort isn't helping.

I love the way they look. :) He seems so much happier with live plants in there! :)

Yeah I have been adding towns of plans to my tanks.
