Vesicularia montagnei 'Christmas' moss

Product description

About the species

The Christmas moss is a moss specialty from Brazil, 1-3 cm high, called "Christmas tree moss" or Christmas tree moss, because of its side branch structure that distinguishes it from the common Vesicularia dubyana and looks like fir branches. It is more demanding than regular Java moss and grows more slowly.

It easily attaches to roots and rocks, and as it spreads into the water it needs pruning to keep its shape attractive. See also Taxiphyllum barbieri. The Christmas moss is also perfect vegetation for shrimps in your aquarium and also good as a hiding place for small shrimps
