Beginner-Proof
Java Moss — Golf-Ball Portion
If you keep feeders or breed livebearers, java moss is the first plant to add. It needs no substrate, no CO₂, and almost no light. Tie it to a rock or just let it drift, and it forms a dense mat that newborn fry hide in and that pulls nitrate out of the water.

About this product
If you keep feeders or breed livebearers, java moss is the first plant to add. It needs no substrate, no CO₂, and almost no light. Tie it to a rock or just let it drift, and it forms a dense mat that newborn fry hide in and that pulls nitrate out of the water.
In a feeder holding tank it pulls double duty: shelter that lowers stress and a biofilm surface that gives guppies something to pick at between feedings. Practically impossible to kill.
