    I just got the Singapore Moss from the ground this morning. Just wash them and put it back piece by piece in the tank. They are not on mesh. They sink in automatically. I just put the few pieces of rock to cover the pieces together.

    Hi Merviso,

    This hobby is very addictive. Now into my third tank, which is my experiment tank above.

    The red colour plant you gave me the last time, is doing very well. Grow very fast, can see it grow a bit taller everyday. The green colour plant that is like flower, is also doing well. Not much success with your foreground plant. Below is my current tank. I just bought some grade B CRS from fellow brother a few days back. They managed to survive so far.

    Hi, i see some of the mosses on the ground all over hdb estates. But will they survive if submerged in water? So, they're called Singapore moss?

    Sengkang grass field has lots of Singapore moss, mostly under trees where grass could not creep in.

    Keep us posted on the progress. The last time I tried it on a driftwood and it turned out slow and I gave up.
