My Javamoss keep loss its small leaf... become just long batang without leaf... now my javamoss look more like birdnest....u see how weird is it when everybody said javamoss is most easy to grow even without ferts or co2 and low light... if high light and ferts daily.. it will goes wild which is what i did and it become bird nest.... aquarium plant made me tired jor... everything seems like a myth now...
ReplyDeletethat's true, guide is guide, experience make the difference.. anyway, from what i notice, java moss growth faster in humid atmosphere and not fully drown in water.. maybe it takes time for them to adapt to the environment..
ReplyDeleteThe problem is like this, My javamoss take 1 month to adapt.. then start growing and many small fern.. perfect. thats mean its grow,
ReplyDeletethen now the fern gone... left the batang.... weird, i though it adapt jor... is it 55W light too strong?
