Notas de cuidado
Ferrie moss is easy to grow, similar to Singapore moss. Low to moderate lighting is sufficient, no CO2 needed. Water should be soft to moderately hard, pH 5.5-7.5, temperature 20-28°C. It attaches easily to rough surfaces. Regular trimming keeps it compact. Liquid nutrients can improve density. Avoid excessive light to prevent algae.
