Sorry my mistake it is £4 per portion.
 
Does it need CO2 and how fast does it grow?

Hello, This does not need Co2 to grow but without it grows a lot slower. Growth wise I would swy it grows at same speed as Xmas moss.

Hi, do you still have any? I'm interested in a portion if you do.
Cheers.

I'm sorry if this is a silly question, but does this need to be attached to something, eg wood, or can it be planted directly into the substrate?
Cheers.

Hello, you would need to tie it to wood/stone or similar, otherwise it will float round the tank as you can not plant it. 
 
The way I do it is tie the pellia to a piece of slate, push the slate down under the surface of the substrate, then you wont be able to see the slate anyway and it will look like the Pellia is planted.
 
Still have plenty left for sale.
 
Just received my pellia, it's in great condition and delivered quickly, a brilliant plant for low and high tech conditions. Thank you livewire!

Hi there, thanks for the info.
 
I like the suggestion of tying it to slate and then hiding it. I've got some bogwood that I will probably attach it to.
 
I'll take a portion please :)
 
Just received my second lot of pellia, again, really quick delivery...thank you!

You can see the excellent quality in these pics (centre)

Just so you know ... it's actually Monosolenium tenerum. Been mislabeled as pellia or pelia all over the place.
