    Based on what I observe. The fissidens grow better with low temperature and high light.
    Anyone?

    It grow differently in different water condition. US fissiden in low light will grow thin and long and in high light will grow dense short and fat.

    Re: US fissiden grow faster with lower light and no co2

    Thanks for the comparison shifu!
    Any idea if different water temperature will cause any differences?
    How about the colour? Will it be of different.shades of green due to the different perimeters?

    Re: US fissiden grow faster with lower light and no co2

    Water temperature will also cause different but the fissiden pictures I post are grown at same temp 25C. The color is just due to camera white balance the actual fissidens are same color.

    Good question, I should update my blog.

    Re: US fissiden grow faster with lower light and no co2

    Thanks for the clarification shifu. Based on what I read, they are able to survive in room temperature right? (~28°c)
    Will there be a difference in their out look other than growth rate? Care to share the recommanded photo period?

    Re: US fissiden grow faster with lower light and no co2

    Hiya folks, I'm a newbie. Just hoping for some advice on growing this..
    I bought a tub from NA and tied them to a mesh. It has been a few months and I guess you can say that they are growing well, very thick but slightly "blackish".

    It the "blackish" due to algae? Anyway to make them look so green like the brothers here?

    Since they are tied to a mesh and growing very thick and dense, how do I grow more of them? Untie them from the current mesh and split them up into more meshes? Would I hurt them if I do that?

    maybe, wont know until see it. To propagate fissiden you can just trim them and tie the trimmed part to something else.

    They also grow faster when they are close to light.

    Yes, I have the same issue of "blackish" for the fissiden. Mine is a low tech 40cm by 25cm tank. No CO2 except occasional excel dosing with a 3 x 3watt led for light. Temperature is constantly hovering around 22 degree celsius. What is the cause for the blackish for the fissidens?

    Re: US fissiden grow faster with lower light and no co2

    I would like to know the blackish part around my US fissidens as well. The US fiss appears to be rotting. I'm not sure whether to throw them away or its a natural occurence?

    I would also like to know if anyone has any tips to secure US fissidens to a branchy bogwood. I heard that mini fiss seems to secure itself better than the US fiss.

    Re: US fissiden grow faster with lower light and no co2

    my mini fissiden are also blackish when i introduced them to my tank for a couple of weeks, after weeks in chilled water and co2, they turn green again.

    Re: US fissiden grow faster with lower light and no co2

    Any success with tanks wothout co2? There are a couple of posts in the forum that users have success with non co2 tanks as well.

    What I want to know actually is if the blackish part is due to rotting leaves, algae growth or just natural moss colour?

    they should be natural, they are probably adapting to the new tank. Putting them in non co2 tank, they turn green slower.
