- Deep green moss with spiky fronds
- Easily separates into multiple pieces
- 100% clean with no algae, duckweed, or snails
Taxiphyllum sp. 'Spiky Moss' is like the bigger cousin of Christmas moss because of its spiky, deep green "branches" that extend out in multiple directions. When attached to hardscape, it can transform a normal piece of driftwood into a moss-covered branch lying deep within an unexplored forest. This moss is very undemanding and grows well even in very low light conditions. As with most other mosses, you can easily propagate it by breaking off a clump of moss and relocating it to another area.

Originally this plant was placed in my 55gal, but it didn’t do well. It eventually turned brownish and found itself next to the sponge filter. I took it out and put it in my 10gal, algae rich tank, and it is now growing! The plants in my 10gal do much better than the 55gal, and I don’t know why. Fish don’t do well, but snails and plants love it.
I wasn't sure what to expect with my first tissue culture purchase, but I was blown away by how healthy and vibrant my moss is. There was no melting period to speak of, my shrimp adore it.
This is my first tissue culture purchase. I was impressed with the quantity and quality of the moss. I’ve planted it into my shrimp tank and it is doing well.
As expected from the coop excellent service fast delivery, quality product.
First time buying tissue cultures. Ordered the Spikey and Flame moss. Both are thriving in my tanks. I divided the moss culture between 3 different tanks and it is doing great in each one.
I had never tried plant tissue cultures so thought I'd give it a try. When it arrived it was beautiful - bright green and healthy looking. I attached it to driftwood in a couple tanks and to cholla wood and it's doing great. Very happy with spiky moss and would buy again.
problem with not growing fast enough and that on metal not doing anything will co2 be good?
Came looking as fresh as in the photo. I opted to plant it in substrate, it is doing great.
Nice, very different like grass. Received it in great condition and is doing well. I would recommend it .
I keep coming back for these, so full and encourages baby shrimp babies.
Arrived in vibrant, healthy condition. This is the second time ordering this plant. Couple months ago, used it on some driftwood in 29 gallons tank with great results inspiring me to order some for the 55 gallons tank setup. Had to glue medium size pieces of dragon stone together to form two larger show pieces. The spiky moss was fantastic at hiding where joining pieces looked irregular, aiding to the look of one solid stone. Also used some on cholla wood because it's easy to split into multiple separate plants. Love this plant!
