Moss Coverage On Pebbles - Java And Xmas Moss Slow Growing - Other Opt

[Deleted member 107737]

Hi All.
 
I have a 150litre tank which has plants in.
 
I have some pebbles which i would like to cover in moss. simular to the algae you get on rocks outside your house.
 
Does such thing exist??

Also i have tried java moss and xmas moss but both dont grow much and i have followed recommended conditions for it to grow fast
 
Im looking for a kind of algae carpet if that makes sense so i cant see the pebbles much.
 
Thanks,
 
Dave

Moss is a slow grower unless your running high powered lights and dosing/injecting CO2.
 
You can superglue the moss to the rock, which would work.

Agreed altho high powered lights is not essential. If you want a moss carpet you will need to dose micros macros and a carbon source such as florish excel or easycarbo.
Or it will grow very slow and look manky!
