Description
Aquatic plants from tissue culture offer several benefits. They are free from pesticides and unwanted extraneous organisms such as parasites, pathogens, snails, planarians, insect larvae, algae and annoying "weeds" such as duckweed. The pesky removal of rock wool is omitted completely
Flame Moss (Taxiphyllum 'Flame') is known for its spectacular, vertical growth. Aquascapers love this moss because of its hairgrass-like growth, and its ease of care. Flame moss is regularly used as a decorative plant in aquariums. As with most aquatic mosses, it loves low-medium light. High light will fry it.
Once your Flame Moss starts growing, you can cut off the moss into smaller pieces with a scissor and allow the pieces to free float, or attach to driftwood. These baby pieces will start growing very soon.
