Quick question. Does moss bought at the store/sponsor need to be treated with bleach solution before putting it in the viv like plants do?

It has been my experience that the moss I have received has contained more tiny little critters than anything else, so I always treat it with the same precautions as the plants.

I dont think moss handles bleach that well.

Most moss handles bleach treatment fine. Riccia is tougher to treat and I haven't tried Java with this method yet, but we have been treating moss using this method for years now with success. Some of our moss is pre-treated before it's sold, too.
