You can find out how to grow a moss wall by going to:

http://www.killies.com/Mosswall.htm

You can buy the plastic mesh from this store along Jalan Besar. Here's the address:

Lai Xinfeng & Sons Hardware Pte Ltd
112 Jalan Besar
Singapore 208832
Tel: 62941140

They also has a website at: www.nasia.com/laixinfeng

As far as I know, the plastic mesh won't change your water parameters. It does not matter if the colour will fade because you won't see the mesh if your moss wall is successful.

Hah On the net, age doesn't count for anything but when you see me in real life, you better call me uncle []

Happy star, the difference is only $2. Don't make a big deal out of it. As far as I know, if you buy the mesh from a fish shop, it costs a lot more.

Another thing, you don't have to use the plastic suction cups along the whole perimeter of the wall. Just insert some along the top row. In other words, just hang the wall. Because the wall will become a death trap for fish if you stick all the sides to the tank.

Yes, I agree it's a death trap! I've had 2 oto who comitted suicide that way already...now dun even dare think of any algae eating fish in my tank (which is a waste) as they'll worm their way in between the mesh
