TAXIPHYLLUM BARBIERI – Easy and Versatile Aquarium Moss
Taxiphyllum barbieri, often mistakenly called "Java moss", is actually a distinct species from the original Java moss Vesicularia dubyana. Since the 1970s, this hardy and adaptable moss has become one of the most popular choices for planted aquariums due to its ease of care and aesthetic versatility.
Ideal for attaching to driftwood, rocks, or for creating moss carpets, it adapts well to various aquascaping styles, from natural to minimalistic. Taxiphyllum barbieri thrives in low to medium light and tolerates a wide range of water conditions, making it suitable for beginners and experienced aquarists alike.
Key features:
• Versatile moss ideal for foregrounds, rocks, and driftwood
