Vesicularia Dubyana 

You will receive 5 grams of Java Moss. 

Java moss is one of the easiest to grow, and hardy, aquarium plants around. It is commonly used for aquascaping and can produce beautiful results. It also has many other benefits such as providing protection for eggs and fry, improving tank health and providing food for breeding fish. Moss provides a natural, aging look and can give life to a bare and plain tank. Java moss is relatively easy to install, grow and maintain and it’s almost impossible to kill it. It will attach itself to many different surfaces including gravel, driftwood, rocks and commercial decorations. It’s a delicate moss which has irregular small branched stems. The stems are covered in tiny, 2mm long oval-shaped leaves which overlap.

 

Java moss that grows under water has bright green leaves that are much smaller than the leaves that grow on land. It can be used to soften harsh features in the aquarium. For example, cover the wall or floor, or even cover the filter to make it look attractive. Moss provides your tank with a more natural feel – if you ever walk through a damp forest you’re highly likely to find moss growing on most surfaces, especially if there is a stream or river nearby.

Another popular place you’ll see java moss is in breeder tanks. Moss creates the ideal place for eggs to attach to, and for fry to hide in from larger fish.

Not only does it provide fry with shelter, but java moss also creates an ideal place to harbor infusorians, which is the perfect first food for fry. It also provides a great hiding place for shrimp and so is very common amongst shrimp tanks.
