Does Christmas Moss grow on glass or does it need something to root itself to? Sorry if this may sound dumb, but I have heard of moss walls and was wondering exactly how to build a moss wall.
 
the waiting is the hardest part!
 
Yeah,lol. Moss walls tend to look pretty bad till they grow in. You just have to be patient.
 
my java moss has attatched itself to the back wall of my tank and is starting to spread out quite nicely. i think that was just a fluke though

Wow, that's pretty neat! I would guess the tank was really well established, and had a nice, thick biofilm on the back of it. Maybe the moss could grip on to that?
 
I have also had moss gor on the glass of my tanks. It happens, but very slowly and you need to have a base for it to grow off of.
 
Nice, might try the mesh idea...

Thanks
