Reply With Quotewhat was the size of the initial mesh when you first put in ?
and the us fissiden spred thru out the tank with just tat mesh ?
US Fissiden can grow well without those guidelines you mentioned. They will grow even in 30 degree + tank with medium lighting. Though very slowly.Originally Posted by leonard6july

those standard size selling from Y618.
Fissiden will grow on the mesh but you need to trim/harvest and tie to another meshs.........
Very impressive moss tank! The fissidens are so dense and well grown.

Good work bro. It's so nice.
Who needs a TV set when you have a planted tank full of killies? - Andy
haha wow this is good.. but when u grow your tank in indirect sunlight won't it get algae bloom? personally i feel the worst thing that could happento fissidens is black brush algae. because its so hard to remove manually, and dosing with excel will also kill the fissidens.
So far only green spot algae on tank glass, need to remove weekly.
I dont dose excel, it will kill my yamoto shrimps some how...
WOW! That looks AMAZING!
When I first started reading this thread I was thinking to myself "Wah.. that's quite fantastic"
And when I saw the latest picture I was like.. "WHAT???" My eye-balls almost jumped out their sockets man!
Another 3 months and you will have more fissidens than water in that tank haha!
Will you be doing any trimming? Are you worried about the bottom-most layer of the fissdens turning brown and dying?
Hi,
I have not trim them for more than half year......lazy.
Those bottom layer fissiden in front of my tank dont turn brown , maybe due to bright light.
Yeah, really amazing right. Mind to share your secret on keeping algaes out? Because my experience with sunlight is it grows algae fast. My experience with fissidens is they grow so slow that it does not deprive the algae. Put them together, uncontrollable algae growth. Pls pls share your secret. Thanks in advance bro!

how did you get the fissidens to grow at ambient temperatures? that is amazing!
Current setup:
Tank: 30x20x20
Filter: Shiruba External canister filter 280l/hr
Fauna: Chinese Warty newt, 8 fire shrimp, 1 cherry shrimp, 1 otto. Currently starting to do planted aquarium with low tech yeast setup.
Yes, please share the tricks to grow the fissidens at ambient and algae free.
Mine will be affected by thread or cladophora algae.
hi,
I dont have any tricks or secrets.
i believe is my tank locations.
i have tried growing lotus plants, japonica, crypt , etc.....all healhty no algae .
i dont dose nutrient except CO2.
BUT i failed to grow nana and moss, maybe due to bright light.
Nice one there
very nice looking, am planning to set up a Fissiden tank for shrimp with the foreground as fissiden and christmas moss as the moss wall, not sure what the effect will be haha
i wish i can grow my fissdens that thick D:
Updating my 3 feet Fissiden tank, 02 January 2012
