Plant Profile Common Names: Christmas Moss on Bonsai This pre-grown Christmas Moss on Bonsai Tree is moss-definitely the ultimate shortcut to establishing an underwater forest. We have taken uniquely hand-crafted bonsai wood and pre-wrapped the branches with lush Christmas Moss so you can skip the tedious design phase and drop a living work of art straight into your tank. Since this legendary moss is famously hardy and practically grows itself, you get all the prestige of an expert-level aquascape with zero green-thumb anxiety. Please note: Every single bonsai tree is uniquely hand-crafted by natural artisans. Photos represent the style, but the exact shape and branch configuration of your tree will vary. Key Features & Benefits Arrives with the moss pre-attached and ready to go, allowing you to bypass months of waiting for growth and instantly anchor a mature focal point in your tank. Highly efficient at absorbing excess nutrients and nitrates directly from the water column, keeping your tank cleaner and helping to outcompete nuisance algae. The intricate branch network and dense moss foliage provide a premium foraging playground and a safe shelter for delicate shrimp and baby fish fry. Care & Planting Instructions Place the weighted base of the bonsai tree directly onto your substrate, or lock it into your existing rockwork to blend it seamlessly into your layout. Prune the moss canopy regularly with sharp aquascaping shears to keep the "tree foliage" neat, compact, and looking like a manicured bonsai. Keep your water parameters stable and avoid making rapid, drastic shifts in temperature or pH to prevent the moss from melting. Provide clean weekly water changes and consider using carbon dioxide injection if you want to accelerate growth and unlock a deeper, richer green. Propagate your tree over time by simply snipping off excess moss growth and securing it to other rocks or wood in your aquarium.
