Looks like Xmas moss to me.

Looks like nano or willow moss. Though seems a little big to be nano moss?

[lachie1998]

looks similar but in the pic the leaves look big compared to the ones on my moss? but the shape of the leaves looks the same.

[Loach]

hmm, might be nano but the little leaves look a little different to nano. Nano has pointier leaves or whatever theyre called lol

[lachie1998]

it look very similar to this, dont u rekon?

and it also grows the same

[Loach]

Well that photo is nano moss. Can you give us a pic of the moss in your tank?

[lachie1998]

its right at the back of my tank:( but it is the same as the moss in question

[Matt_95]

It looks similar to stringy miss, same genus as nano I believe.

[Loach]

Lets just say its nano then :)

[lachie1998]

whats the value of this stuff?

[Dean]

what is it worth to you to sell???? if its over priced people will tell you pretty fast :)

20$ for a ball is reasonable for most moss's

[Loach]

This stuff is worth way more. Will try and dig a price for you :)

[lachie1998]

what about mini sydney fissiden?

[Matt_95]

I used to sell mine for $10 a tennis ball size since it's so easy to grow.

[Loach]

Found a thread from a few months back and this stuff was sold at $25 for a 10cm long portion. A golfball of this stuff would go at least $50.

It's so easy to grow!!! It's one of the easiest native mosses I have grown. I don't care to much about pricing anyways.

[Dean]

so do we have a name yet :)

Is it native? I dont think so... Are you sure you have the foreign nano moss?

I don't have nano moss, I said I have stringy moss. There's also a moss in the same genus found further down south refered to as nano moss. Common names are confusing.
