The java moss mat arrived quickly and looks very natural in my tank. I attached it to the back wall and my shrimp have started using it as a hiding spot. It’s easy to install and has grown well after a few weeks.

I used this moss to cover part of the tank floor. It looks great and the shrimp seem to like it. It’s not too dense, so there’s still room for movement. A little trimming is needed after a few weeks.
Justin Butler –
The moss is very durable and has held up well in my 10-gallon tank. I attached it to a piece of driftwood and it’s now a nice green cover. My fish have been using it as a resting area.
Joe Mills –
It arrived in good condition, but the mat is a bit thin and may not last long in strong water flow. I plan to add more moss later to cover more areas.
