When getting some rcs today there was a piece of Java Moss thats about 3" long that was from their original tank. I was wondering if it'll grow and how fast does it grow?
There is nowhere to buy them in the shops round here so it'd be good if it does.
Thanks :)

Growing Java moss

I think if you look you'll find lots of info in this forum on j moss. From what I've gleaned it is slow to grow but the more you have the faster it grows kind of like exponential growth. I'd suggest asking (WTB) under classifieds and you might get a decent amount to work with pretty cheaply.
My experience is the stuff is super hardy (I've frozen it) and grows best if kept free of detritus. Hope this helps

Oh you're in England

Sorry just noticed this maybe aquabid and using one of those guys from Thailand might be not too bad way to go
