1 5x3 inch Flame Moss Mat per order.

Flame Moss (Taxiphyllum sp. 'Flame') is a distinctive aquarium moss prized for its vertical, flame-like growth pattern. Unlike most mosses that spread outward, Flame Moss grows upward in twisting spirals that resemble flickering flames. Offered as a pre-grown mat, it’s ready to place directly in your aquarium, making it easy to add a lush, structured carpet or attachable feature without the hassle of tying it yourself.

Key Features

  • Pre-grown mat for easy placement in the aquarium

  • Unique upright, flame-like growth pattern

  • Ideal for carpeting, accent pieces, or attaching to rocks and driftwood
  • Provides natural shelter and grazing areas for shrimp and small fish
  • Hardy and low-maintenance, suitable for beginners and experts

Care Tips

Lighting: Low to moderate lighting keeps moss healthy; avoid overly intense light to reduce algae risk


CO₂ & Fertilization: CO₂ is not required but can improve growth density; occasional liquid fertilization helps maintain vibrancy

Temperature: Thrives in 68–82°F (20–28°C)

Water Conditions: Best in a pH range of 6.0–7.5; adaptable to soft or moderately hard water

Placement & Growth: Place the mat on substrate or hardscape; moss will continue to grow upward into its signature flame-like form

Maintenance: Trim as needed to shape and encourage dense, upright growth
