Flame Moss is a fascinating and visually striking aquatic moss known for its distinctive upward-growing, flame-like shoots. Unlike traditional mosses that spread horizontally, this species grows in a twisting, vertical pattern, making it an excellent choice for creating unique aquascaping effects. It can be attached to driftwood, rocks, or mesh, adding a dynamic and natural look to freshwater aquariums.

Key Features

  • Unique Vertical Growth: Grows in an upward, spiraling pattern resembling flames.
  • Hardy & Versatile: Can be attached to driftwood, rocks, or used as a carpet.
