    was thinking of shipping in some.. hows the growth and difficulty?
    note : i have nothing to do with the seller below, just happen that he is the only fissiden selling in aquabid..

    bioplast named it as mini fissiden..

    the price on the net is so cheap, it really tempted me to get it from them but have the same concern as u .

    Re: Fissidens splachnobryoides

    It is not probably an aquatic moss. Well I still could not get success with it growing submersed. It grows well floating like riccia:




    And being exposed to air from time to time:




    But being submersed it does not show positive growth. This plant grows totally submeresed for 6-7 months:


    But still need some time to watch...

    All the pictures above are made in my tanks. My opinion is based on my own expirience. Maybe someone could keep them better. Still not too much info...

    Re: Fissidens splachnobryoides

    The plant in aquamagic's advert is a Fissidens probabaly F splachnobryoides and it can be grown submerged given enough CO2. I bought it a couple of years ago. Unfortunately what they are selling now is not F splachnobryoides even though they still show the same photograph. Kokon's moss is not even a Fissidens (which are easy to tell apart from other mosses). I have also received this moss when I asked for more F splachnobryoides recently. Its no good in the aquarium.

    best regards

    Why not try Bioplast which is in Singapore? They are THE aquarium moss specialists.

    F splachnobryoides is a very slow grower especially in water. The moss you have looks alot like it and could be the same. Where did you find it?

    Re: Fissidens splachnobryoides

    update.. its been 3 weeks since i tie them to mesh. and yes, took them out and i see some growth.. i placed them back at the tank so i don't really see them at all.. so once in a while take them out and check on them.

    can see small specks of leaves from the brown patch.. really small fissiden leaves!

    What temperature are you using. Do you use CO2? How many watts/gal?

    Or you could also try Nature Aquarium (NA) in Balestier.

    They grew and sold this moss once upon a time:
