hello all, been awhile. Does anyone keep this moss. I believe this is what i found a couple of weeks ago. i was going through a stream near my cousins house and found a sunken tree. over all of the branches was a thick cover of moss growing underwater. i broke a branch off and cleaned it before introducing it. It was really dirty with mud and small black bugs and a couple of red worms. My tank is still healthy, knock on wood. I found it in a pennsylvanian streem. Does fissidins fontanus grow here in penn? Does anyone else keep it? I fear that it will disinigrate due to my 77 degree water.

Hi,
I see references to warmer climates (Arizona and Mexico)
but nothing as far north as Pa.
