For my first attempt at a planted tank, I obtained some Dwarf Sagittaria for a 3 foot tank. However, I came across this video where, from just 2 small bunches, the Dwarf Sagittaria literally overran a small tank in 1 year.
@4:21 in the video he says all this growth, in 1 year, happened from 2 small bunches.
How do you prevent a runner plant from overrunning a tank? In that video, the roots have spread to the entire base of the tank, which makes me think that even regular up-rooting and trimming might not ultimately prevent the Dwarf Sagittaria from eventually overrunning the tank?
I had intended to have Dwarf Sagittaria in the foreground, and many different non-runner plants in the background.
