Fissidens Fontanus 2x2 inch. Premium Phoenix Moss for shrimp tanks and aquascapes

Portion is a 2x2 inches on a mesh

Fissidens Fontanus, also known as Phoenix Moss, is a beautiful and highly desirable aquarium moss known for its compact, feather-like growth pattern. Unlike common mosses that grow in long, stringy strands, Fissidens Fontanus forms elegant layered fronds that create a clean, mature, and natural aquascape appearance.

This moss is an excellent choice for shrimp tanks, nano aquariums, breeder tanks, and planted aquascapes. Its fine structure provides surface area for biofilm and microorganisms, making it a great grazing area for shrimp and baby shrimp. Over time, it can attach to driftwood, stone, lava rock, mesh, or aquarium décor, creating a lush green accent that looks especially premium in detailed aquascapes.

Fissidens Fontanus is slower growing than many common aquarium mosses, which makes it easier to manage and less invasive. It is ideal for aquarists who want a refined moss with a unique texture and a more controlled growth habit.
