Description
This attractive moss has a very bushy growth habit, yet remains quite delicate. We got it under the name "Mini Taiwan moss" (Isopterygium sp. ), but we found that it is another moss that belongs to the genus Vesicularia. It resembles "Christmas moss" very closely, but it is much more delicate and stays smaller. This moss develops dense, regularly ramifying shoots with almost rectangular lateral shoots. Mini Christmas moss attaches readily to rocks and driftwood and is thus ideal for accentuating hardscape materials. It can be used in many ways.
Mini Christmas moss is ideal for aquascaping, however, it can also be used in standard aquaria very well. Its fine, delicate structure makes the tank look larger, and thus you can play with proportions very well to create the illusion of a larger tank.
