Thanks For Watching This AQUAPROS Production Guys!!! Don't Forget To 👍 The Video And Subscribe!
Yeah, let’s explore more moss and more ways we might keep it growing. I’ll be starting my first riparium in the next couple of weeks as well as a mini-terrarium.
Check out Serpa Design. He's got a lot of great videos on ripariums.
Mike Bircher Thanks! I’m already a subscriber to his channel. I’ve been watching his content for quite awhile now.
I’m interested in more moss videos. I put moss in a jar and covered it with water. It continued to thrive. Today I’m going to collect a few different types of moss and see how they do under water.
Did it just survive or did it actually grow larger? Also what kind of moss did you use? I just started a similar kind of experiment today, so was just curious
I have been growing a few different terrestrial mosses immersed both in aquarium and in a jar on the window to add to the aquarium later. They tend to grow tall and lanky but depends on the species of moss
The moss probably died on the wood because the lighting was too high. Most of the terrestrial moss I find grows well on perpetually damp soil (i.e. near streams) in the shade of tall trees, and generally stops growing where the shade cuts off. It might do better in a low-light paludarium.
ill try this anyway what kind of light do i need tnx
Agreed. 👌
I've been wondering about this question for the past 3 weeks... I wondered if it would have to be acclimated... I vote go for it
It doesn't work if you try to acclimate it. It just drowns the area that's the wettest, and then the death spreads upward.
Depends on the species
It depends on the type of moss that you put in the aquarium, The temperature and ammount of light, I have used terrestral moss in my aquariums before and its been doing really well now for around 5 months.
To answer the question before watching: yes! I successfully grew some from my backyard in my guppy breeding tank. Just takes time to acclimate.
Same
Hey Danny,
I've read conflicting recommendation about leaving the dirt with it versus rinsing it as much as possible, do you have any thoughts on the matter?
@@VinylUnboxings clean most of the dirt off, leave some of it there for the roots, then float the moss on top of the tank for a few days until it naturally sinks, and it should transition fairly well. It would do even better if you had CO2 running.
@@GlassBoxHero Thank you!
Superb I have loads in my back yard
I would like to share my progress here: I've been trying different types of mosses and the one that had a perfect success fully submerged after being emerged for weeks,
was the Pilea Microphylla, aka Angeloweed, Artillery Plant, Joypowder plant and/or Brilhantina Moss. My mosses are absolutely huge and I don't use any CO2 or liquid
fertilizers, medium light but I do use natural potting soil with aqua soil, topped with Pure-Off white Aquarium Sand.
any luck with pillow moss?
Depends on what kind of moss you’re using I’ve done it for years always worked out pretty great I have certain mosses in my tanks right now that have been in there going on 7 or 8 years
That's great to hear from you.
Have you identified your moss?
A name would be helpful
I have mine in a tube by itself and after a week it stinks then I change the tap water. What can I do so thi gets good so I can put in the tank?
Would love to see an experiment that tests different terrestrial mosses. I think moss looks great and it would be awesome to have a free supply in my yard!
Terrestrial moss can live in an aquarium for awhile. But I’ve never heard about any having it more than a month or two. I’ve tried multiple times myself and it did fine for a month and then it died of.
For the love of everything. Yes! Please go down that rabbit hole
If you find terrestrial moss that is growing submerged in the wild and transplant it that will work. It had to do with the moss having grown to get its co2 from roots or air. Underwater already gets it from roots and an established tank will have that ready for it. Thats what I did. It worked!
Yes! Definitely do the moss experiment! I was at Roaring River Fish Hatchery yesterday and noticed that there was the same moss growing in the water submerged as the moss that was above water on the cliff. They both looked like they were doing pretty well. I swear it was the same moss! I also learned recently that moss really likes acidic environments. Don’t know if that helps at all. Good luck!
Thanks for the info really needed 😁
You should try this expirement with 3+ species of terrestrial moss and in 2 tanks (one with CO2 and one without)
Great timing I'm camping right now and was going to bring some moss home to try this.,
Those dinosaurs freaked me.😂💚💚
I've had a few species of moss grow submerged for a while in a takeaway container with some seed shrimp. When they're submerged, they do tend to grow taller rather than spread out.Silvery bryum
imo is common and easy to grow underwater.
2 things:
1) do a collaboration with Serpa Design
2) omg! That happened to your eyes? You get in a fight?
as a moss fanatic, id love to see more about moss in aquariums
A few months ago on a trip home to Kentucky and in the woods near the Creek I found an amazing amount of lush terrestrial Moss.. I brought it home I watched a few videos but I really didn't find away to keep it growing and I lost it all..so this is a subject I'm definitely interested to learn more about.. So my answer is yes on trying a CO2 and Moss experiment..👍 your setup still looks amazing!! And all the fish look like they're doing well... Thanks for sharing! 🙏🌿🐟🌱♥️
I love all his tanks they are so cool 😎
Lol I have a ton of moss in my natural and c02 aquariums, it all started as moss collected from the garden centre at my hardware store. It grows under the water down to 60cm and out of the water about 6cm before the wood gets too dry.
Yes! Go down the rabbit hole with moss. I have a lot of different moss' in my are and I would love to use them in my aquarium.
Yes, I'm trying to see if some will acclamate right now, from the front yard. I can see new growth already but we'll see.
That is a awesome tank I like that the fish are at different life stages, it give it more depth, and yes to the moss test!
You should try the moss you put in the thumbnail it’s pretty common in my area and I would like to know if I could put in a aquarium
Yes. Full experiment please
Yes, I would love to see an experiment on what conditions would terrestrial moss survive inside the water. I have been successful when I use ferts
Yes please try different types of moss lets see what happens
Just found your channel and yes please go down the rabbit hole. Am genuinely curious because I want a long lasting tank
For terrestrial moss, try a sealed Paludarium. Roots or rhizome part in the water. 'Leaves' above water
Moss experiment! It would be quite entertaining to see an aqua terrarium with moss both in the water and on the "land".
Yes!!! Please do a moss video, it would be great!
Yes please I’ve actually been looking for different types of moss for my aquarium I wana learn more about moss and algae
Yes please, do experiment, I'm doing a little bit of that myself, and would love to see your results. :)
Yes let's explore more terrestrial mosses. I remember either a TH-cam video or reading that "certain" types of moss can grow under water.
It's be interesting to explore different types of moss.
Defenetly!
Go for it and Ill follow your progress with the moss. I
A question Ive had for a while, thank you.
I _definitely_ think you should try to ID different mosses and see which do and don't make it
Thats really nice. I pulled some moss off the side of a canal lock its usually submerged under water for the most part but locks been empty for a few days and its been out of water as this stretch of canal isn't very busy but its still really wet.
Interested to see if it lives ive wedged it in the holes on a dragon rock.
I know some plants struggle to adjust from land to water some don't transit some die off and then regrow as its transactioning to absorbing CO² from its roots rather than leaves as on land but this moss is used to being submerged so im hoping it takes.
I've two different types of terristrial mosses in my aquarium. One of them completely died, and the other survived for about a month before turning yellow and getting overtaken by algae
I made a kokedama with land moss and submerged into my aquarium yesterday. Lets see how long it stays alive.
Yes. Also pls do a black water tank.
Yeeees! Love moss and would Love to see these results
Yes please do more testing
I tried it too. Beautiful outside but no didn't work submerged. Also put some on piece of driftwood that came up just above waterline. It stayed damp with lots of lighting, it just fell apart. No co2 used
A few years ago someone did this experiment with terrestrial moss I can't find it though. It seemed to do well for a time then died. Many plants will survive flooding but depending on their DNA they won't survive underwater for long. To do the experiment you are going to need to know the sp of the moss and the climatic conditions it grows in.
I am actually trying that out right now.with several types. one week and already some of them have decayed and some are okay .. lets wait and see.
Was I the only one expecting Scarface to be sitting at a desk with a big green trash bag in on of the aquariums?😨🤣
Yeah man, go for it. I think we all want to know
there's plenty of underwater moss already. perhaps you could offer a primer on the different types.
Yes I’m very interested!!!! All my terrestrial mosses die out over time!! I want to see if you can find one that works!!!
I just found some pincushion moss and was wondering the same thing lol
Do it but also see what terstial plants that can grow submerged
We need an update on all your tanks
You got it!
Yes please do experiments are always cool
I think the moss experiment would be cool
Only moss I have kept growing was very low light and high humidity. Yes in my scorpions tank.
I am sooo wanting to set up an aqua-terrarium!
Yes please explore it
Yes, do it based on hardiness zones
Yeah sounds really interesting. Go for it
The weed plant with all the leaves sort of looks like a Calendula or a Forget Me Not. :)
Very beautiful 👍
Quick question for all of you more experienced aquarium owners, do anubias man petite ever have runners? There's one root on my plant, and it has a really long root starting to branch into more roots that looks like a runner, but I can't tell
I'd love for you to do that experiment
Go in the forrest, find all kind of moss, , get some java moss, and what els you can find, the more the better.
Blend it all with a little water.
Add a little aquarium soil, so you get a thick mass.
Take a wood root from your aquarium , and put the moss mass on it, all over.
Put the wood root in a plastic bag, under a light, and in some good heat, 24 degree cencius.
After 3 weeks, where you keep it moist , add it to a tank with water.
The moss that lives best under water, will take over and the moss that will die, will just die.
My moss does fine but i acclimate everything. But my light is on 12 hours a day on a set timer and i feed the plants too. Most of the time i find if they die off if you leave them alone and not take them out they grow back healthy in the water.
Yes, go down the rabbit hole. I need the moss for shrimp and shrimp breeding. Moss died in record speed.
Yes
Nice video 👍😀😍
Yes pleas..
There is so mutch to learn..
I have moss right now i the window in Nordic Sweden.
I believe it’s one of those moss by moss basis situation cause from what I hear, most are successful. Some are harder to acclimate than others though. But once you get it going, it can keep going. That being said; there’s plenty that won’t work. I think you’re on the right track by testing different species & seeing what works & wat doesn’t.
You’re certainly the right man for this job…😏
Yes please on the experiment!
michael langerman makes decent videos on terrestrial mosses and other things in aquariums
How do you clean all of your tanks?
If you want the babies to grow faster, more frequent water changes, but either way, you're going to need to thin out their numbers; whether now or later.
Did you end up doing this experiment?? I’m interested
The reason your moss died is probably from the light
If you plant more between the ferns and plants where it gets indirect light it would prob survive inevitably
Would love to see if terrestrial moss can grow submerged.
Most aquatic plants do not have cuticles ( cuticles are like Teflon coating on leaves and plant body.. Cuticles are found on land plants like the moss .. It prevents external water and solutes from entering the tissues .. ) .. In case of aquatic plants, water is absorbed via body surface including leaves.. Since roots are poorly developed..
Carbondioxide is less soluble in water.. So for photosynthesis, Aquatic plants have DBLs (diffusive boundary layers) .. For maximum absorption of CO2 .. The Moss doesn't have those..
So the cause of death.. Dehydration and suffocation.. ????? #botany
How is your betta fishes doing haven’t seen them for a while and u plan on breeding them
This mans can grow ferns in a open air environment with constantly wet roots, some random yellow desk lamp and no soil
But I cant even grow them with a 200 dollar light , in a enclosed vivarium environment , best soil I can buy and a automatic misting system...just👌🏿
I was just curious to see if I could get moss in my fish tank. I've gathered about 5 different types of land moss and have them fully submerged in water, just waiting to see what survives and looks good until I add to my tank
Yes, certain types will grow like Java Moss in an aquarium.
Please do this moss experiment Mike! I need the answer to which terrestrial moss can thrive in my aquarium with no CO2 injection 👍🏻
Yes I want to grow some
I have some moss outside and wondered if you could use it.
it is possible to grow land moss underwater. Also great video bro.
Do the test! I believe you said one time that you live in Washington up north of where I am? I live in the Puyallup area. I would love to see if there are mosses in our area that would work either way.
Moss absolutely absorb lots of oxygen in his growing period co2 is must in the moss aquarium otherwise moss will die definitely
Guess you just needed some more fish to get the little ones out
Yep I did. need micro and macro bacteria to complete the ecosystem
Tell me something about that air conditioner 😛
So can I get moss from my garden for my aquarium?
hell yes i wanna know
Your music has a “DAFT PUNK” vibe. Keep up the good work!
Yes please DO IT!!!!!!
