Is this Christmas moss? I had some that I tossed into a jar with Sphagnum moss also last fall. Could it be that going aquatic?
It has black wiry stems and this almost hair algae like fine texture. Is it Java moss? Maybe somehow THAT was also a hitcher into the jar.

looks like Java Moss with algae on it
 
No algae.,its all moss. But it was growing on dead sphag in the jar and thats what it rooted on to. Now I have it on a rock that you cant see anymore. I'm curious to see how it grows in the near future.
I also have "Taiwan Moss" and can tell you its a great moss. Dark glossy green and large moss leaves. Seems to be a fast grower even in low tech. Faster than Java moss that I also have just going.
Its like Mark Davis says ( of MD aquascaping) you are going for the look of high tech while knowing its just a reasonable facsimile.
