❓ FAQ – Moss Care & Placement
Q: Do I need to plant moss in the substrate? Nope! These mosses are epiphytes — they grow best attached to hardscape like driftwood, stones, or mesh. Use thread, glue, or let them settle naturally.
Q: Can I use this in a low-tech tank? Absolutely. Moss thrives in low-tech tanks, especially with shrimp or slow-flow environments. It doesn’t need CO₂.
Q: Will this moss float around? When loose, yes — it’s best to anchor it. You can tie it down, use mesh, or tuck it into crevices.
