    Most mosses don't required high light to grow... flame moss can be kept at low & high lighting.

    Cheers!

    From experience, I would say that lower temperature make it more curly/twisted. I try it with 28C before at it is not that curly/twisted.
    Bro newtank maybe can confirm it.

    Flame moss is like any other moss. It thrive in low temperatures and lush growth. So a search for Bro Zenscape's aquascape and you'll see how beautiful this specimen is when a chiller is added.

    Where do you stay bro? I've actually have got flame moss for sale. Seeing that you're new and if its possible for you to swing by my place, I can give a little bit to you for you to experiment.

    Tried Flame Moss in both 28 to 29 degrees and in a 25 degrees tank.
    In warmer waters, the flame moss are stringy and in the colder waters, the flame moss looks very lush and grows very closely together.

    I have my flame moss in 26degrees water. Lush and green, but I do see a couple of strands in the middle of the bush going a little more brown. Nutrients all taken up by the strands on the side???

    Does the name flame moss comes from the yellowish colour they have? I have some flame moss, but they are partially yellow. As compared to the rest of the moss, the rest is not yellowish with the same condition. Thats show that this flame moss is not dying but yellowish in nature, am I right?

    flame moss was named with the word "flame" because it grows straight up and have the curly appearance.. nothing got to do with being yellow..
