"A sauce cup of moss- does a lot more than I expected. I had enough for covering a piece of wood and enough for part of the floor/ground. Very excited to see it adapt and really start growing." -Oli Via Etsy Just plop in your tank, and you'll have a mess of quick-growing Java moss(Vesicularia dubyana) in no time! Also perfect for the aquascapers that may wish to try a loose portion on some driftwood, stone, decorations etc. Try your hand at a Bonsai Driftwood. These are drifting, low light, and easy care plants. I love them in mine as they are great at sheltering fry and baby shrimplets, plus they do some serious heavy-lifting at biological filtration! Learn more about that here. This order is for one clump of Java Moss, roughly as much as I can cram (gently) into a 2oz deli cup. It's roughly a golf ball or so. Measured in volume, not weight! Grown SUBMERGED Growing requirements: 60-80 Degrees Fahrenheit Ph 6-8 Low light intensity. Fast growth speed Co2 not needed Java moss is a super duper plant all around. It requires very little in the way of light, temperature, or ferts. You will notice faster, denser growth in a higher- maintenance aquarium, of course, but it isn't necessary. This is an excellent starter plant for freshwater aquariums. Try your hand at aquascaping with this loose moss! Perfect for driftwood, volcanic rock, Cholla pieces or even an advanced moss backdrop! I've got a handy how-to right here. Depending on the tank these were grown in, your portion may be exposed to higher or lower lights-- or submerged or immersed growing conditions-- hence the 'browning'. It's light exposure, not dying. As I like to keep real ecosystems in my aquariums, there's always the possibility of harmless snail or dwarf shrimp hitchhikers! Mine love community tanks, with minimal fertilizer and average light/ room temperatures. I do have snails in my tanks, so If you'd absolutely rather not have snail hitchhikers, definitely look up how to do a bleach dip. Thank you for looking, aqua friends!
