Common Name: Java Moss
Taxiphyllum barbieri from South-East Asia is a hardy plant which makes few demands on the water or light. The moss becomes 3-10 cm thick and grows willingly on any surface, so it is ideal for decorating stones and tree roots or concealing installations in the aquarium. In breeding aquariums Taxiphyllum barbieri is a wonderful hiding place for the young fish.
