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.

This moss is better than Java moss in my opinion, but both I’ve ordered from Daku are great. Will continue to shop here.
