for what i did was, i tied my spiky moss onto a wire mesh, laid then down on top of my gravel and let them slowly grow by themsleves, cool water is ideal for best moss growth

Hi all,
Just to share with everyone for my 4' x 2' x2' tank
I tie about 3' long US fissiden on small stone and long wood (4-5 inch dep) infront and follow by round edge riccia (3-5") behind it and abt 1ft downoi on the other side.
On the rear left with java fern DW while on the right rear DW with US fissiden and round edge riccia with "Red taiyang chow". Also some Jap fissiden.
regards
i personally prefer christmas moss....
you can also try riccia carpet.....beautiful when it bubbles
when the moss grow thick it will auto cover the mesh, no worry.
What about Singapore's moss?
like what hii bro said, when the moss starts growing, it will be so thick that it'll cover the mesh

Thanks for the advises. Will try soon...
Make sure you cover the mesh evenly
Would there be a need to have a thicker coverage at the edge of the mesh?
I got taiwan moss carpet, I did not pay extra attention on the edge, after a while the moss will cover the whole mess. Just make sure you cover the mesh evenly otherwise you will see some empty patch.
Anyone tried Utricularia graminifolia? http://www.tropica.com/article.asp?t...aristic&id=731

I second both Christmas & Spiky moss.
Only thing is to ensure that they stay at least dirt free.

Most importantly- hair algae free.

Do place them at a cooling place. The fronds for the xmas moss and spiky moss will be very beautiful

can moss grow in a tank around 28 deg c ? i tried in the past a few times and failed miserably ... they simply browned and rotted away.
