Can someone please tell me info about

java moss
peacock moss
flame moss
xmas moss
taiwan moss

And if anyone has some extra they are willing to give up please let me know.

Thanks
 
They are all very similar unless you know what you're looking at.
Generally java moss will grow quickest, but is more of a straggly looking moss.
Flame moss, as the name suggests, will grow upwards towards the light to look like flames.
Christmas moss has fir tree shaped fronds.
Peacock moss is almost identical to christmas moss in appearance, but has a slightly softer texture.
Taiwan moss is more spiky. The fronds are still fir tree shaped, but there are less side-shoots to make the "trunk" look more spiky.

If you look here you will find a list of nearly all aquatic mosses with information on each.
