Frequently Asked Questions
1. How do I keep my aquarium moss healthy?
Aquarium moss generally does well with clean water and good circulation. Keep debris from accumulating on the moss and trim it periodically to prevent overly dense growth.
2. What is the best way to attach or position the clay piece in my tank?
Because the moss comes pre-attached to a weighted clay ceramic base, no glue or thread is needed! Simply place the clay piece onto your substrate, or nestle it among your rocks and driftwood to add an immediate splash of green.
3. How do I stop moss trimmings from spreading everywhere during maintenance?
Always turn off your filter pumps and powerheads before trimming moss. Use sharp curved shears to make clean cuts, and immediately scoop or siphon out floating cuttings so they don't take root in unwanted areas of your aquarium.
