MY LFS buys all I can supply. It grows like mad in an overloaded low light
guppy/platty tank. Makes for nice credit and with a 300% markup they make a
nice profit too ;-) Now if they'd just pay for the damn guppies and
platys.

They complain about the commercial stuff that gets shipped in ..its too
pale, mine is nice and green. I use a big ball in the guppy tank as a place
for fry to hang out.

In my other tanks I limit it to a basalt donut in one and a new start on a
chunk of drift wood. Interestingly, the latter colonized from a mass
floating in the tank. Anyone know anything about how it reproduces, outside
of growing huge and spitting?

Thanks all,

After the 1st post suggesting that it's a welcome plant, I
badgered the
local Big Al's here in Mississauga, and they confessed to
having some in one
of their tanks which they sold me for a nominal amount.
It's something that
they say they always have in stock, but simply haven't had
for the past
month. Apparently one of their employees grows it at home
and hasn't
brought any in recently.

I really want some Java Moss. The only LFS that normally
carries it says they won't get any until June. Maybe it's
time to consider ordering some online?
