Hi,

Would the Java Moss below be the correct type to form a carpet in the tank:

Yes, all mosses can create nice carpets, I especially like moss balls and christmas moss.

I do have a moss ball which looks great. Im also considering Christmas moss but seems to be a tad on the expensive side.

Thanks for your help

I'll send you a bit of christmas moss in a few months time, it will only be a little bit though, as I sold some java moss and didn't really have that much, so had to strip my bogwood of xmas and java moss, but i've still got a few strands left growing.

doesn't java moss after a while grow into a ball shape?

My guess is that that is a certain type of moss.

By looking at the thread pinned (by Jimbo) which is about growing java moss as a carpet in the tank it grows towards the light to create a carpet effect.
