The 40 Gallon Long has a few bunches of Willow moss in the tank, and it is just growing like MAD. Wrapping itself around lava rocks, gravel, etc. When I went to pull out the Wysteria to trim it better, I had to move the moss to get to it's roots, and I couldn't even get some of the gravel out. It's a VERY lush green as well.
In my Shrimp tank I'm planning on using quite a bit of the willow moss, as it's one of my favorites. Is it possible to cut off a few trimmings, and put them in a Tupperware container filled with water and in indirect sunlight? If so it would end up being way cheaper then buying all of it, not saying the stuff is expensive, but still... It's going to be until at least May when I can get out to the Dunes to get driftwood for the tank, but would the willow moss clippings actually grow quite a bit in a setting like that?
Should I put dirt in of any sort? Or could I attempt to grow it on matts to make it easy to replant in the tank?
Thank you in advance
