Question to the moss experts and lovers.
I'm in the process of setting up my grow up tank for my Amano shrimp breeding experiment. I'm trying to make a pleasing tank. Been thinking of mosses as I see plenty of breeder using moss in their breeding tanks. However my temperature usually hover around 27-29C. That doesn't seem to be adequate for most mosses out there. The only ones that I know can grow fine are the java moss and the flaming moss since I've had those in my tanks before. However I am not a fan of those mosses. I much prefer the fissidens and the hooker moss. The hooker, to what I've read, doesn't like hot environments, despite is name which would imply otherwise. I am not so sure about the fissidens. I've read conflicting information.
Any other interesting mosses that can be kept at the above temperatures and do no require a chiller?
Thank you.
