Description
Christmas moss grown attached to a piece of clay.
Christmas Moss (Vesicularia Montagnei), also known as Xmas Moss, is a plant native to Southeast Asia. This plant is one of the easiest mosses to grow in the aquarium hobby. It's extremely hardy and therefore great for beginners as it doesn't require Co2 (although it benefits from it) and will adjust to pretty much any range of water parameters. This is a plant that will grow best when attached to any aquarium surface, including - driftwood, rocks, and ornaments. It's a great alternative to Java Moss as it is low maintenance and more appealing.
Propagation is done by division - simply divide little pieces and attach them in different locations.
