The Plant
Fissidens nobilis is a sought-after moss from Southeast Asia with bright green, feathery fronds. It is fairly hardy across a range of water conditions and grows up to about 4 inches tall. It comes as a 3 x 3 inch mat.
Plant Care
Type: Moss · Origin: Southeast Asia · Height: Up to 4 in · Light: Medium to high · CO2: Not required · Temp: 70 to 82°F · pH: 6.5 to 7.8
Planting Tips
Tie or glue the mat onto driftwood, stone or decor; it grows best fixed to a surface. To spread it, split the mat into small pieces and attach them in new spots.
Why Shrimp Keepers Like It
Moss is a shrimp favorite. The dense fronds trap biofilm and food bits that shrimp pick through all day, and baby shrimp hide deep inside the mat. It also takes up nitrate.
