I live in Arizona so collecting moss from nature that suits my vivarium is hopeless, and none of my local nurseries/ pet stores have much to offer. I’ve searched online but most the time they are sold out. It’s been the biggest thing lacking from my vivariums so if anyone has answers I would...

Hi everyone. I have been looking for hypnum moss (sheet moss) everywhere it seems. I've called florists, checked hardware stores, online. ''Nurseries'' are almost non-existent here. Finding shis or other moss in the US seems extremely easy but no one ships here in Canada. The only option I found...

Hey, I want to grow moss on my vivarium background. It's made out of silicone with substrate on top of it. My attempt is to put some "moss spores" (crushed dried moss) on the background and let it grow. But after 2 weeks there is no progress. The spores get good led light and I have an average...

I am so bloody confused y'all. I have heard on one side that quality (Josh's frogs) grade spaghnum is completely fine to use for grow out tanks, while on the other hand I've heard that in three or so weeks you could see massive die offs because of lack of oxygen or something like that. What are...

I am pretty new to Dendrobates, and I am coming from fish keeping so I was thinking: Is it ok to forage for leaf litter, forest hummus, mud, moss, etc from the woods? I have a reserve near my home. I already do it in anaerobic filtration and for biodiversity in fishtanks, also use for my...

I made a bioactive viv about 6 months ago and put rehydrated forest moss as a layer on top. The moss started as a faded greenish yellow color and is now brown. I use treated tap whatever whenever watering the enclosure and it is very humid in there. Will this harm my frogs? Should i replace the...

I could use some advice on moss species. What is best for carpeting the ground, epiphytic on driftwood and climbing the background walls? Java Moss appears to be a favorite on this board for its striking color, but is expensive and looks to come in only small packages making it difficult for my...

Hello! I am new to this forum and therefor learning how to use it. some info - i started in the aquascaping hobby, breeding shrimp and fish sp., i loved growing the aquatic plants, which lead to collecting houseplants, that led to collecting more rare and wallet breaking plants, and then i...

Hi guys, I recently built this terrarium and let it cycle. However, I wasn't completely happy with it, because the frogs would not have hiding spots, so I added wood. Currently it is like this: Soon after, lights stopped working so for this past three days I have used a normal reading lamp...

I really just want to buy "low growing tropical moss" Moss that i have been seeing everywhere but can not find a link or site to buy from. I found that it could be bought here under the marketplace but I need to post 25 times and an undisclosed amount of time must have passed. Can anyone direct...

Hi everyone, I am hoping to get an insight into the general timeline for the dusk moss mix in your experience. When should people expect to see the first bit of green and also when should moss clearly be visible? Timeline pics of the growth would be most appreciated! Currently, I have dusk moss...

My ranitomeya imitator FINALLY laid eggs! I was stoked!!!! but unfortunately, they were duds =( So i decided next time around, I'll let the parents, be parents. I wasn't checking for eggs aggressively. So last week, when I was feeding them, I checked my bromeliads, my small water bowl, and film...

I made a terrarium out of a big vas that has a seal, but i didnt use charcoal in it i made a false bottom with a netting over it and then the substrate then i added moss watered it and then closed it. My question is what chances of surviving does it have since i didnt use charcoal. I live in...

So I'm almost finished with my first vivarium and will have a portion of my plant "growout" chamber free for awhile and figured I'd do an experiment with the different mediums for growing mosses. I currently grow an unknown moss i scraped from the base of a brom on a standard microfiber towel...

Second mandatory post before I can do more stuff and y'all are assured I'm not a spam robot. ;) My mosses are starting to spread! Also fun grammar fact: 'The plural form mosses is used when more than one kind of moss is meant. The plural is moss when referring to a collection of moss plants of...

Hello. I am doing timelapses of mosses growing for a project. As mosses are sensitive to changes in moisture levels, I am trying to find a way to keep the relative humidity in the grow chamber steady over the weeks or months that will be needed to do the shots. I also have to keep the air moving...
