Aquatic Plants
IMPORTANT: Aquarium moss may vary in growth forms. Because of this, please understand how to properly transition and acclimate plant(s) into desired form(s). We do our best to thoroughly clean and inspect all plants prior to shipment but cannot guarantee aquarium moss to be free from snails and/or algae. Not your thing? Please consider purchasing tissue culture aquarium plants!
Tissue culture plants are cultivated in sterile lab settings ensuring your plant is free from pests, snails and algae! These are young specimen that are grown in emersed forms. Gel should always be removed prior to planting.
LIVE PLANTS ARE SUSCEPTIBLE TO STRESS AND DAMAGE FROM TRANSIT - This may appear in the form of minimal melt, cosmetic damage (such as browning), etc. Refunds or replacements will not be issued for moss with browning parts or portions that die out of our care.

Vesicularia Dubyana, more commonly known as Java Moss is one of the most popular aquatic mosses around. An essential in the planted tank hobby, this aquarium moss is versatile, extremely hardy, and will tolerate a wide range of aquarium conditions. This bulletproof nature makes it a great choice for beginner aquarists or aquarium hobbyists looking to try their hands at live aquarium plants. Java Moss can be used for a range of purposes such as providing shade and coverage to shrimplets and nano tropical fish. Java Moss is also commonly used to cover small stones for accents in the foreground of a planted aquarium. Aquarium mosses make great makeshift foliage for bonsai driftwood to produce underwater tree aquascapes and more. The addition of CO2 injection and higher lighting will encourage faster and more robust growth. Once established, Java Moss may need routine maintenance to prevent it from overtaking the aquarium. We recommend pulling or removing manually. If using aquascaping tools, try turning off the filter as aquarium moss will grow anywhere it lands!
Approximate size per small portion is golfball while large portion is softball.
