Fissidens Fontanus

[saram521]

Can anyone (hopefully with experience in growing this moss) give me any specific information on how to care for this moss? Do I need to include co2? Does the water need to be at a certain pH or hardness? How many wpg? I have a 46 gal. bowfront that is about 18 in. deep I think. I'll be upgrading the lighting with 2 6700k bulbs that will bring me to between 2.5 and 3 wpg (not sure of the exact amount). I know plants are sometimes capable of acclimating to less than desirable conditions for growth, but in those situations they grow funky. I want to know what I'd NEED to do (not what I should do, per say) to grow the fissidens in a uniform manner.

Thanks in advance for any advice

I have this plant growing in my 10g under 2.8wpg with ferts and co2 added. I have low ph and soft water. But I see this plants requirements similar to some of the mosses, where it will do good under 1.5-2wpg but would do best if its 2.5+ .
