## Overview

Java moss (Vesicularia dubyana) is a resilient live aquarium plant from South-East Asia that grows 3-10 cm thick and attaches to any surface. It requires minimal light and water, making it ideal for decorating stones, roots, or hiding aquarium equipment. Sold in 10g portions, it also provides a natural refuge for young fish, combining aesthetic appeal with functional aquatic habitat enhancement.

## Description

Java moss from South-East Asia is a hardy plant which makes few demands on the water or light. The moss becomes 3-10 cm thick and grows willingly on any surface, so it is ideal for decorating stones and tree roots or concealing installations in the aquarium. Attach the plant with a piece of fishing line or cotton thread until it has gained a hold on the décor. If its growth becomes too luxuriant, it can be pruned with scissors. In breeding aquariums Taxiphyllum barbieri is a wonderful hiding place for the young fish.

Review: Fast delivery - Excellent as described all green except a few tiny bits
