Monte Carlo lifting

[chr15_8]

Hi all,

Done a water change on my tank and while giving the sand a quick vacuum I floating above my monte carlo carpet.
Unfortunately some got successfully into the vacuum and it has now begun to lift. Any suggestions on how to get it back down? It has been in there for almost 2 months now so am surprised the roots aren't more established.

Any suggestion would be great.

Thanks
Chris

Not saying it’s the best way but when I was in the same shoes I pulled it out and glued to tiny pebble and sticked back into the gravel

or wait and new shoots will grow into the substrate anyway then cut sticking out part
