Vesicularia sp. 'Christmas Moss' – Invitro Aquarium Plant
Vesicularia sp. 'Christmas Moss' is a popular moss prized for its neat, triangular branching pattern, which resembles the fronds of a miniature Christmas tree. Its fine, dense structure makes it a favourite for tying to driftwood, rock, or mesh to create lush, textured hardscape features, and it's also a great option for shrimp and fry looking for cover. Supplied in a 100% sterile invitro pot by Tropica, this plant is free from algae, pests, and snails, making it a safe choice for shrimp and delicate aquariums.
Christmas Moss is easy to grow and doesn't need CO2 to thrive, though moderate lighting and CO2 will help it grow denser and more compact. Regular trimming keeps the branching pattern neat and encourages fuller, bushier growth rather than long, straggly strands.
