Post I got some!

Well everyone after many months of searching I finally found some java moss! It was at our new lfs. I love them. Everytime I am looking for somting I want or need they eventually end up having it! It looks really great in my tank. I have it next to my driftwood. I love my tank now. It is making a carpet effect to where my tank looks like it just covered in plants. I have to get more though because it's not a really big peice. It's in my 29 gallon and it contrast nicly with my other plants. Well I just thougth I would let you people know that. ;D

Well it's in the 29 gallon and it is about a 4 inch peice. I just want some more to put on the other side. All the excess I can just put in my 10 gallon. ;D

Stuff is nice, I just threw a little strand in my 10 and I have a bunch.

Ambulia is also nice CBDude, it seams to grow pretty nice in my 10g.

Mine looks so much fluffier, this looks like a nice camboda, not ambulia.

Post Re: I got some!

I was at petsmart today and they had some of this but it had a red tent to it. ;D

The java moss is starting to grow upward. Is that normal? I wanted it to grow out like a carpet.

Another question I have is what kinda plant do you guys suggest for my 29 gallon to cover the back of it completly so that my cords don't show? I want something that grows thick and beautifully. Thanks. ;D

Post Re: I got some!

if you want something to cover the entire back wall, i'd go with vals of some sort. giant vals would be great, and so would jungle vals. they grow pretty fast under the right conditions. and are pretty hardy.

Post Re: I got some!

Well right now all of my plants are really small because I cut most of them down where the roots where making new plants and stocked my 10 gallon. So they are all really small right now and they arn't filling the tank out like I want them to. I will look into the vals. I want one of those nice densly planted tanks now. ;D
