Cameroon Moss (Taxiphyllum sp. 'Cameroon') is a stunning moss native to West Africa, known for its dense, feathery texture and vibrant green color. This hardy moss is perfect for adding soft, lush greenery to aquascapes and is highly adaptable to various aquarium conditions. Whether used as a foreground carpet or attached to hardscaping elements like rocks and driftwood, Cameroon Moss creates a natural and serene look in the tank, making it ideal for both beginner and experienced hobbyists.

Key Features

  • Feathery, Soft Growth: Forms dense clusters of vibrant green leaves with a soft, feathery texture.
  • Versatile Placement: Can be used as a foreground carpet, midground plant, or attached to rocks, driftwood, or mesh for a more natural appearance.
  • Hardy & Low Maintenance: Easy to care for and grows well in a variety of water conditions.
  • Ideal for Shrimp & Fry: Provides excellent hiding places and biofilm for shrimp and baby fish.
  • Slow to Moderate Growth: Requires occasional trimming to maintain its shape but grows steadily once established.

Care Tips

  • Lighting: Prefers low to moderate lighting; intense lighting may lead to algae growth on the moss.
  • CO₂ & Fertilization: CO₂ is not required, and regular liquid fertilization supports its overall health.
  • Temperature: Thrives in water temperatures between 68–80°F (20–27°C).
  • Water Conditions: Adapts well to a pH range of 6.0–7.5 and soft to moderately hard water.
  • Substrate & Placement: Can be attached to driftwood, rocks, or mesh with thread or fishing line, or placed directly on substrate.
  • Trimming & Maintenance: Regular trimming may be needed to prevent overgrowth and maintain shape.
  • Propagation: Propagates easily by dividing the moss into smaller portions and reattaching them to new surfaces.
