So what does everyone use that actually works?
Right now I am thinking coconut husk and moss mixture or maybe just dirt. Either would be covered in a single layer of small river rocks (3/4" flat circular rocks). When I plant something, I just need to remove 1 rock where the stem is, or place the stem in between a set of rocks. This should block most things from hiding, and prevent the frogs from kicking up substrate. I assume they will be to big for the frogs to effectively move, and way to big to accidentally eat.
