    Default Attaching plants to slate

    Could I attach Anubias and Java Fern to a slate tile with superglue? I've tried thread, but it's just not doing the job. My other idea is to try root java or Christmas moss to it using something like fishnet tights to hold it on.

    Crazy glue works for corals. I would think it would do fine for plants just cover a huge amount of the rhizome.
    Meant to say dont cover a huge amount of rhizome!

    I do highly recommend a gel version instead of the regular superglue. It tends to stay in place better.
