I bought this Java Moss float for my community tank and it has grown beautifully. It spreads quickly and provides excellent cover for my neon tetras and shrimp. I left it free-floating and it looks very natural. Easy to maintain and doesn’t need much attention.
Claire Dyer –
Great product! The moss attaches well to my driftwood and has formed a nice green layer. My fish seem more relaxed now with the cover. It’s been two months and it’s still thriving.
Kevin Butler –
It arrived fresh and the floating form works well. I attached it to a rock and it has grown a bit. A little more growth than expected, but it’s not too much to manage. Good value for the price.

Perfect for a beginner tank. I didn’t know much about live plants before, but this moss is easy to care for. My fry now have a safe place to hide, and the tank looks much more natural.
