People have told me they will not eat Java Moss, but when i had mine, it liked to tear it off the driftwood i had it attached to and was it was just a pain. -- Gomer

They outgrew my 29 gal so I threw them in. I think the oscar likes them as he hasn't wrecked them yet..Been in there over a month. This is an oscar that trashes my fake plants for fun.. Too bad there's not enough light on that tank to sustain them, they'll turn brown then fall apart The Amazon Nut...
