Aquatic Moss Mini Taiwan Moss for Freshwater Aquariums, 3 x 3 Inch Mat for Rocks and Driftwood

A 3 x 3 inch mat of Mini Taiwan moss (Taxiphyllum sp. 'Mini Taiwan') for freshwater aquascaping.

Attach it to rocks, driftwood, or aquarium décor to build a soft carpet or textured hardscape accent.

Suitable for most freshwater fish and invertebrate aquariums when herbivorous species are avoided.

Key Features

• Compact fronds create a fine-textured carpet or accent, bringing natural depth to planted aquarium layouts.
• The epiphytic growth habit lets you secure the moss to rocks, driftwood, or décor instead of burying it in substrate, reducing decay risk.
• It can grow without injected CO2 or heavy fertilization, while balanced liquid fertilizer or CO2 may encourage healthier, more vibrant growth.
• Gentle water flow protects the delicate fronds, making placement in a low- to moderate-flow area important for steady growth.
• Regular trimming with clean scissors keeps the mat dense and shaped, and removing yellowing fronds maintains a tidy aquascape.
• Divide the moss into smaller portions and attach them to new surfaces to propagate additional patches over time.
