Hi there. Sorry but I am not good at identifying the different species of moss. But pictures 2 - 4 looks to me like fissiden and not moss.
Hi Guys, passed by colourful aquarium during the weekend of aquarama, met uncle thomas(thomas i think), had a hard time communicating with him because of the language barrier (my fookien is really bad) anyway can you guys help me ID the mosses I purchased from him?
2 species here, one in front and one at the back

How come your moss's leave are so big? like magnified alot of times like that...
The plant in the second picture looks like Fontinalis antyperitica var. gigantea. Not too sure though.

they just make the most of everything that comes along their way
When will there be 25 letters in the alphabets?

Pic 1 look like Singapore Moss, Pic 2 is Willow moss (need medium to high light & cold water 25C to grow it nice and green, else it will turn darker color soon), Pic 3 look to me is enlarge version of Fissiden.
fissiden look not very healthy, cover by a layer of algae? last pic no idea what moss..
The last one looks like Fissiden zippelianus aka zipper moss.
Are these mosses made known to you by the shopowner?

yup there is still a layer of err sediment/soot because i moved around the stuff inside the tank,
hehe language barrier, uncle Richard could not give me the english names...
im trying my best right now to grow these mosses
Picture 2 & 3 looks like willow to me.
Fissidens are also considered mosses according to the experts at www.killies.com.
My guesses
1) looks like a Vesicularia species-could be Singapore moss, X-mas or other variant.
2) Fontinalis antipyretica var. gigantea-Giant willow moss
3) Looks like a Fissidens from the American continent.
4) Looks like Leptodictyum riparium -Stringy Moss

pic 2 and 3 should be willow moss. Not an easy moss to keep. Harder than us fissiden in my opinion. PIc 1 is erect moss or sing moss.. i think.
Pic 1 is x-mass moss. Got no idea what the rest are. The last pic looks like straw to me XD
pic 2 confirm is willow moss.
My guess...
1- Singapore Moss
2 - Willow Moss
3- US Fissiden ( not very healthy looking though..)
4- Stringy moss
All the best in growing them.
