now since the top of my water has a high current, if i just put java moss in there it would float all around

what can i do to hold it in place in a corner or side that i want it to be at?
 
I have had luck wedging it into my driftwood. I have heard tying it down with fishing line usually works well until it can take hold on a surface.
 
I've also heard about using very fine twine, which will just disintigrate over time. I haven't tried this myself, and if I was going to I'd make REALLY sure it didn't effect the water quality at all. But, it would be easier than fishing line which you would have to remove.
 
i use plain cotton thread, like from my jeans. Boil it if you're concerned about it hurting the fish. I did this for my java ferns.
