Can’t grow plants? Add this practically indestructible plant to your aquarium and finally enjoy dense, luscious growth. This beginner-friendly plant is easy to grow and tolerant of mistakes. This moss is attached to a flexible wire grid that sinks to the ground or can be wrapped around decor to instantly add a naturalistic element to any aquarium. The thick moss provides a natural spawning spot for breeding fish and offers excellent cover for baby fish and shrimp.
Easiest Plant to Grow
We love this beginner-friendly plant because it thrives in low light, doesn't need substrate to grow, and does great in a wide range of environments. Just feed a little Easy Green all-in-one fertilizer and watch it grow. The fuzzy fronds are perfect for fish to lay their eggs, babies to hide in, and dwarf shrimp to graze on.
Comes Attached to a Metal Grid
Planting your java moss is as easy as dropping it in the aquarium and letting it sink to the ground. Since it comes attached to a flexible metal grid, you can also wrap it around driftwood or other decor to give it a natural look.
I ordered 2 Java moss mats. When they were packed, a heat pad was placed in the bottom of the box, then dry goods and packing material were added and the Java moss was placed in the top of the box, nowhere near the heat pad. The Java moss was very cold to the touch when it arrived, but luckily not frozen. A few parts are brown, but most of the mat is green and it seems to be growing, so I think these are hardy plants.

Java Moss is easy to grow
You receive a beautiful piece of material with Java Moss on it. Some dies back in shipping, but it grows so fast, it comes right back. This is good stuff to reduce nitrates and it spreads and looks good too.

Died
I ordered two mats and they just died right away. I've got other types of moss in the same tank as well as Java moss from another source that are doing fine, but this browned up right away and didn't come back.
