Hemianthus callitrichoides is really beauitful.. is consider one of the smallest plant in the world.

Cost about Rm15 - Rm7 1 Pot
nickname : HC
Light : Mid - Low
Growth : Mid

Without Co2 also can grow but slower, with Co2 will grow faster. Other is "Glossostigma elatinoides"

Cost about Rm10 - Rm15 1 Pack
Nickname : Glosso
Light : Mid - high
Growth : fast

You need co2 and strong light require for this if not u see yr plant growing upwards.. lol ^^ have fun

great seeing all the shrimp, fishies and great tanks.

quick dumb question, does moss need soil to grow ?
or it only need driftwood and rock to be attached.

thank you all.

@boygenetic,  lazy as hell to do maintenance and going for moss? Are you sure moss is 'low' maintenance?

But sure as hell moss is Low cost and easy to care.

Suggest going for plants like Ferns and anubias if you truly want low maintenance.
Mosses like pelia would be low maintenance. Anything else in a healthy tank is growth crazy and will make your tank look messy in no time.

i googled fisiden and its not like it. fissiden is like one branch but this one like in layers one. then i asked him why so expensive, then the dude showed me the calculation.

he said he factored in fertilizer lah, cost of electricity lah, said, it was from Taiwan cost bout 1kg RM1K.

not sure to believe him or not but i ran out from the shop quickly possible.
