    Interesting plant, look like an extract from the wild side. No hardscape to match?

    I wonder if your fishes will think the driftwood is a form of an animal. Later they keep avoiding the driftwood haha.

    Tie mini fissidens on it and once it grows out, will look like a topiary animal.

    You can use xmas moss, just need to trim regularly to keep it in shape... mini fissidens grows slower but the fronds are very small so it looks more compact (looks abit like fur).
