Moss Questions

[mike455555]

i quite like the look of moss's. i was wandering which would be the best to get. e.g hardy low mantiance. and not "leggy" i quite like the look of weeping moss and flame moss... do these have any special requirements?

No special needs.
I've got weeping moss, spiky moss and flame moss in a 125litre tank that has no fert regime, no carbon addition and only 18W of t8 light.
I'll admit that the flame moss doesn't look as good as it would in a CO2 enriched tank. In mine it's more leggy.

I've yet to trim mine back so you can imagine how full of moss the tank is.
Mine started out on metal mesh plates and over time I've put some spiky moss around spray bars and other moss in crevices created between rock and wood. I've really got to sort it out and when I do it will be done with super glue
