I have mosses both on stainless steel mesh and driftwood. If u want to transfer the moss from the mesh to driftwood u have to cut loose the thread/plastic or silicon fishing line that's holding the moss in place.
I've see in very few layout's aquascapers have used moss along with mesh placed forcibly between driftwood crevices. But these aquascapers usually have a lot of diff.plants and moss is used to give a certain effect.
Its possible to bend the stainless steel mesh to a desired shape with effort.
I have grown moss on mesh with CO2+good lights (help moss grow quicker) and later cut off the desired quantity and attached to a driftwood.
I also have moss going on both drift wood and mesh. But it's totally up to you of what to want to do. Just like what Ronny said if your mesh can be bent to fit on your drift wood go for it. Either than that your moss should be good when you take if off the mesh.
I wasn't sure if I was supposed to trim this kind of moss or not. The middle portion of it is growing taller than the outer edges so I was looking online to see if I could level it off a bit and use the trimmings elsewhere. I guess the trimmings really don't have "roots" and should keep growing?
I have some java moss tied to a rock using fishing line but I wasn't sure about the flame moss given how it grows....didn't want to kill it but trying some of that stuff without getting info first.
Thanks!
