	Frontinalis temperature
Cup_of_Lifenoodles Fish Guru Posts: 2755 Kudos: 1957 Votes: 30 Registered: 09-Sep-2004	So I FINALLY recieved my order of frontinalis, and I'm wondering, are there any specific temperature requirements for the species? I know certain mosses necessitate lower temps (v. "xmas" I recall, though I'm growing my lot at just under 85 degrees...don't tell anyone ), and I'm wondering just how high the heater can go to keep this stuff lush and healthy?

If you're not sure of if it will do well, save a piece in a water bottle, should your tank moss die, you'll know what went wrong and have a 'backup bit' to grow out again. Good luck Last edited by DaFishMan at 23-Nov-2005 22:14 The Amazon Nut...
