Java moss, anybody?

by bizarrethi

Does anybody have any experience with Java Moss? I would love to get it to grow throughout my tank but I have 3 x 65 watt cfl lights on it (equivalant to 3 x 250 watt incandescent). Also, I have Oscars in my tank so they might eat it.

I just found this post: http://www.walltanks.com/blog/java-moss ... tic-plant/

Says its does not require any special lighting and is easy to grow. I'm going to give it a try and post my results!

I love java moss and have grown it in lower light tanks before. I think it looks best grown attached to drift wood.

I just got some yesterday and I have a diy cement styrafoam backdrop so I made some staples of copperwire and secured it to where the cement has eroded off the background and only styrafoam is exposed. can't wait for it to grow!
