This is so informative! Great job, fantastic reporting!🌻🌼🐝 Keep it up 🙌

I was thinking about adding Christmas Moss, but you really sold me on the Fontanus here. I had Java Moss in the past and it grew so thick and dense i had to thin it out all the time otherwise it would turn brown and unsightly underneath.

I once got some driftwood from a river that had no moss whatsoever on it when I got it, I dropped it into my high-tech an a week later noticed some Phoenix moss growing within a month it covered the entire peice, it was actually a stump about 12x18inches it was the most prolific moss I've ever had. It grew for about 18months an slowly died out, once it was disappearing I tried to save it but not matter what I did or where I positioned it it would not grow as if it had reached its life span, was the weirdest thing. I've since tried replicating this as this was atleast 10yrs ago to no avail. Sometimes it's just dumb luck.

I got some of the Nobilis and I love it!

Thanks for the info! Just got some fontanus. Had java moss in the past and I have to agree, that stuff just keeps growing forever + definitely requires some maintenance.

I never even thought about cutting the mesh. Thanks for the idea! Great stuff, Justin, as always.

Awesome mosses to feature, I have some fissedens fontanus in one of my tanks and really like it.

I had to chuckle at comparing phoenix moss to a peacock feather while knowing there's already another moss specifically named for exactly that, but it's true, the texture of this one of the 'featheriest'.

Just bought 4 of the nobilis yesterday, looking forward to adding it to the aquarium!

I'm making it a goal to buy from those who help the hobby via KZfaq vids...so just ordered a crinum natans from H2O plants! Keep up the good work!

Thanks for this, very helpful!

really nice guide, thank you! :)

Planning on a nano aquascape, including F. fontanus! So thanks for the vid! ;)

Yay! The Difference! 👍🏽

I would love to get either type of fissidens! I have some java moss, but it doesn't seem to like me very much. It is still alive... some of it anyway. Great information, thanks for sharing!

Cool moss! I’d love to see them in a tank tho!

Great for a nano tank. 👍💕👍

Cool Moss! I'm going to try the moss in my Betta tank. Think it will do well in a lower flow tank? Thks

It can help if you can add a shot of how they look inside water

If you want a low maintenance moss that is the most attractive... Riccardia chamedryfolia (technically a liverwort but to us it looks like moss)

Hi Justin, what is ur take on seed shrimp? Cause I found some in my 5.5 planted tank. I ck water conditions 3-4 days, regular water changes like partial mid week & 50% every 2 weeks, gravel vac with changes, root tabs & liquid fertilizer, Fluval stratum & pebble gravel. Betta, nitrite snail, plants all doing great. What have I done wrong? I'm not happy abt these lil' invaders! How did they get in my small but beautiful aquarium? Looking for answers did some research, kinda still not satisfied. Can you help me out? V.

Mine turning all brown after I place it in the tank what can I do to make it green

Been thinking of getting some Phoenix moss but locals want to ship it to me? So weird! I have java and Christmas moss as of right now

I have this moss on driftwood growing for about 3 months now and finding lots of long green strands of hair (algae?) coming off it. I have to pull out as much as possible after every weekly water change otherwise it will get out of control. Are you or anyone else out there with this moss finding the same issue? It’s a beautiful looking moss when it’s thick and full but some part of me regrets getting it now because of this issue.

I ordered some water lettuce Malaysian driftwood and java moss on May 8th it is now May 14th and on your website it said that it would arrive 1 to 3 business days it has been it has been 4 business days is there a reason why it's not here yet I'm just wondering

Didnt talck abought light

Would of liked to see some close up shots of it underwater but good info, I’ve made the mistake of using Java moss and now I’m always trying to remove it, any good tips for subwasssutang?

I got some nobilis and im having a hard time keeping algae off it. black beard algae might actually kill this hobby for me tbh. ive been fighting it for like a year now and i just cant win. no matter how much i play with light and nutrients and liquid carbon and PH.

would've been better to show them inside an aquarium
