Okay, Well, I have a peice of driftwood in my ten gallon tank. And I'm trying to get java moss to attacht to it. I have a sand substrate, and a whole lot of java moss left over, because I ordered it. So, I was wondering how to make it into a carpet for my tank. I know java moss isn't the best for carpeting, but its all I have, because its a low-light tank. Does anybody know how I can accomplish this.
Buy two sheets of plastic canvas (available where craft supplies are sold) and sandwich the threads of moss in between them. Stitch the edges closed, or use a few plastic ties. If you want to use it for a wall, you'll need to cut holes in the plastic so you can put suction cups through it.
Try a search for moss wall and you'll see some nice examples. Good luck!
I know this is old, but your tanks are my inspiration for a small tank I'm working on. I was wondering how the anubias were clustered like this? I really want to do a little carpet of moss, and a cluster of anubias raised up in a mound like this.
Any response is appreciated! And thanks for the links funkyfish, a search brought me to this super helpful thread that I'd like to keep going, instead of just posting new.
