I have two bigger than golf ball size clumps of real taiwan moss trimmings. I trimmed it from the top of the driftwood in my pygmy cory tank. Where I have the driftwood located, the moss gets a lot of light and is directly in the filter outflow so it is mostly all new growth branches rather than mature fronds. So it will probably take a bit more time to branch out for you but it is all healthy, green new growth. If you are familiar with taiwan moss, it sends out streamer type growth and the fern type fronds develop from that. Tied to driftwood or a rock, this will fill in nice and thick for you, but it must be tied down, it will not stay down by the gravel on its own like java moss. It is low light, low maintenance moss. It is beautiful moss that when mature looks like layers upon layers of ferns that you see growing wild in the woods. I would like to give these two portions away to young hobbyists that truly cannot afford to buy any plants. Send me a PM and tell me a little bit about your tank and fish!!
