Java Moss Taxiphyllum Barbieri Easy Live Aquarium Plant

I received these just yesterday and then I tied them to my driftwood using a thread and then I planted them into my aquarium and they appear pretty nice. The color was a little bit brownish greenish not super vibrant green yet, but that is expected for something that’s been in transit in the mail. I’m hoping that the color with time will become a vibrant green. I’ve also used some liquid fertilizer to help with this as well as my other plants in my aquarium and time will tell how this holds up. I’m going to keep it attached to my driftwood via a thread for about a month or two before I remove the thread And hopefully it will do well long-term.

I only gave it one star because I had to put a star on there. This is the worst quality Moss. Not only did it take forever to get here but when I got it it is brown and it is slimy. I have other moss in my tank that I got from the pet store and it is green and healthy. This is garbage and I think it's ridiculous that I cannot get my money back. Do not waste your money go to your local small fish store they have much better quality this is horrible! I am beyond irritated with this. Looks nothing like the picture that they show

This was a nice thot, for a few DOA, and late arrival. All replacements arrived alive & swimming.

Plant came in very nice condition. Value for money and recommend this seller.

Maybe it’s just me, but I put mine near the top of the tank and it’s died out. Other people seem to have better luck, so maybe it’s just me.

Right up top, I think 4 stars for live plants on Amazon is a good expectation. I purchased 3 different plants in one order from this seller, so I'm going to copy the same review to each item. I'll try to update as things grow in. I ordered Hornwort, Java Moss, and Crypt Parva for a new mini shrimp jar. I placed my order on a Saturday evening and I did choose to pay for faster shipping to ensure they had the best chance. To my surprise, the order was filled and shipped Sunday morning. I just received them Wednesday morning and planted everything. It was in a box with a bubblewrap bag with the plants inside. Everything was intact. I received a tissue culture of something for free with my order, not sure what it is yet. Looks green and healthy, we'll see - I sometimes have bad luck with tissues. The hornwort I'm giving 4 stars. It feels strong, but bristly and it's browner than I would hope. Kind of a messy bundle, but it's okay for me because I chopped it into pretty short stems anyways. I expect the color to improve over time, maybe with some trimming and replanting. The java moss also gets 4 stars. It's java moss. Maybe the clump of moss seemed a little small... but again this was a situation where I really didn't need very much, so it worked out. It looks and feels healthy, and it will grow. The crypt parva gets 5 stars. Looked just as good, if not better, than a plant in a bag would look if I drove to my LFS and bought one. Big and healthy and easy to split into smaller pieces. I was worried the crown might be mushy but it's awesome. Overall, my experience is better than I expected. I'll try to update in a few weeks once things settle in, but based on how they look and feel, it would likely be my fault if they died.

Came in a small little bag, and a bit of the clump was brown and a dark green. Separated it a bit and stuck it in my aquarium, tying some to lava rocks and letting others just float or sink wherever. After a while didn't think it was gonna grow, but eventually after like a month or two noticed a bunch of very small tiny green shoots popping up all over the moss branches. Also it seems these little green shoots are actually attaching themselves to the rocks. So it will grow, but takes a while to adapt and needs light to do so. Edit/Update: So updating this review, and lowering my review score... Made another order for this since the first one was so good. When the second one came, what I got was beyond disappointing. The first I ordered came in a little bag that was FULL and gave me enough to cover multiple rocks - like 4-6 rocks. The second order I got gave me a bag with a TINY little pathetic clump that didn't even fill half the small bag it came in. Was only enough for two tiny little rocks. I would not recommend this as it's a gamble as to whether you get a tiny clump or not. The second batch was not worth the money spent and the time it took to get delivered. I got so little the second time I could literally have cut off a small bit from the first batch that grew in another aquarium and I would have had more than what they sent me the second order. Also one more thing, while the first order was great and grew very BIG I did get detritus worms, lots of tiny worms that just appeared out of nowhere and judging by some of the other reviews on here it seems they probably came from this moss. I attached a picture that shows the comparison. First pic was my first order, and second pic was the pathetic clump I got in my second order.

Small in size, but have put in my 2nd aquarium, its fine, about 3-4 weeks now, its still in green and in great condition, looking good. Its bound to grow. The temperature is constant, I do change water about 10 days or less .
