Live Aquarium Plant Flame Moss for Upright Green Growth on Stones, Driftwood Bases and Mesh in Planted Tanks

Flame Moss brings vibrant green growth and a distinctive underwater-flame shape to planted aquariums. Its creeping, upright habit adds natural texture while giving shrimp and fry welcome cover.

Place it across a horizontal surface such as small stones or the base of aquarium driftwood. Choose Small, Large or Stainless Steel Mesh according to the available options and your aquascape.

Key Features
