Peacock Moss

This hardy moss grows fluffy, pointed fronds and it can be used in a variety of ways in the aquarium!

Peacock Moss (Taxiphyllum sp. “Peacock”) is a rare, but very popular and attractive species of creeping moss for the freshwater aquarium. This is a great plant to keep in any freshwater aquarium due to its low lighting requirements and ease of care. It grows into bushy patches that are always a favorite hiding place for shrimp and fish fry. It also provides cultivation areas for tiny live food sources such as infusoria and biofilm. Once established in the aquarium, Peacock Moss fronds appear very bushy and have the appearance of pointy, miniature pine trees similar to Christmas Moss.

This is a very easy plant to keep without much extra care, but like all plants, it can benefit from CO₂ supplementation, although this is not required.

Size: Comes in a 4*4 inch packet
