Once tied down, Christmas moss will attach itself and spread throughout the surface of the tank.What water conditions do they require?This beautiful green moss is highly sought after in the aquarium aquascaping hobby. It gets its name from the branch structure that closely resembles fir tree branches. Christmas moss forms a dense irregular growth that tightly hugs rocks and wood and will sprawl out within your aquarium.Vesicularia montagnei requires slightly more care than other aquarium mosses; it will need higher light levels as well as CO2 and liquid fertilisation. With the correct aquarium water parameters and regular pruning, you will have healthy and compact Christmas moss.

Lovely green colour.
This moss arrived perfectly packed and very healthy.As usual, I placed on the metal mesh well tied with string to make a bonsai tree for my aquarium shrimps and also for ground cover.Sadly over time, the mesh became empty and the moss is gone. Whereabouts? I do not have a clue. Simply vanished.Do not get me wrong the moss was very good quality, and I recommend it. But for some reason, I couldn't make it work, I think all kind of aquarium moss just hates me. This is the only reason I drop a star.

Shame! Didn’t look nothing like the picture!
This unfortunately was all dead on arrival, all a brown colour, I glued it onto a piece of wood to go in the tank, hoping it would revive it, but it hasn’t. So I’ve been and got some plants to put on instead as it looked dreadful. Not sure why it was in that state as it didn’t take long to be delivered. Shame but I simply won’t be buying again. 😔

Unusable
Appeared green and healthy but immediately upon unpacking it came apart into tiny shredded pieces, no pieces large enough to actually attach to anything. Total waste of money.

Not good
Product fell apart

It needs weighting down as it has a tendency to drift and float
It arrived in good condition, it is now in my shrimp tank — shrimps love moss to hide in and eat the bits of Algie that gather in it

Disappointed
I was looking for “Christmas” received other one, which cost much cheaper.

Don't bother
Was very disappointed. Arrived in a jiffy bag, lots of tiny bits, no big clumps I could glue onto my bogwood. Nothing like the lush green picture in the advert.
