Common name: Peacock/Spikey Moss
‘Spiky’ is Asiatic and grows 2-10 cm tall. Best described as Christmas moss' big brother, it is bigger and forms many deep green, branched shoots. A great plant to add a bit of texture and a favorite for nature style aquascapes.
Taxiphyllum 'Spikey'
This plant is grown in-vitro and is kept in a nutrient medium. Gently remove plant from cup and rinse in aquarium water to remove any medium. Separate into portions and attatch to wood or rock with gel based super glue, string or fishing line.
Spiky moss does best on vertical surfaces where the branched shoots will show. A beautiful carpeting effect is possible if you plant small tufts into the bottom substrate with a small interspace. It grows fast and thrives at a very low light intensity.
