    again. When i got it at my fish store it detached itself from the rock it was on. I heard you could secure them with a rubberband so i did so. Then today I see its detached. What should I do? Its resting in a place on the sand atm.

    I would get a small plastic tub and put some rock in it at the bottom of your tank and them put your ric on top. Should attach itself in a few days. Leave it there for a couple weeks and then move it to a place of your choice.

    +1 that's the only way I've been able to get ricordea to attach. I've never had luck rubberbanding
