I seem to have a bit too much java moss....anyone want to trade for some other low to moderate lighting plants??

My Java is free floating and green all around.

Hi Ted.

Good luck with your sale. I wish I could take some but we live so far apart, shipping would cost a bomb. You could try starting another tank to add some of your java moss. That way you can satisfy your MTS too if you have one

Hello Ted. Best of luck with your sale!

Oh I'm sorry not a sale....just an offer. If you have nothing to trade but really need some please ask.

I have it in all my tanks, no more room.

Shipping is not a problem...that stuff mails fine at regular first class postage.....and weighs nothing(almost.) I'm in Maryland and mailed a bit south for $1.50 once.

Alot of folks are hesitant to buy online and my first experience was a tiny little clump for too many $$$.

So who needs some Grow it out and pass it on to other FishLorians.

BTW i did figure out that it does do best in normal Temp and cool water tanks....does porely in my warm water discus setup...approx 82 degrees F..as stated in most Java Moss info.

In bight light it seem seem to grow algae on it to. Grows slower but best in shaded areas. Baby fish love it!!!!!!!!!! hiding places and feeding off thingy's on it.

Great offer Ted. I have enough Java myself but I want to THANK YOU for helping others get plants at prices they can afford. It less than half the cost of a Latte ...you cant beat that. If everyone in this hobby were doing this it would be so cool.
Get some Java Moss folks!!! Its really easy and quite beautiful to grow.

TedsTank

thanks Nate. I think we should have a Plant Bank and used Equip. Bank. to help those who truly need help. This hobby can be costly for those getting started as we recommend this and that....new folks, as we all probably did....got tanks, filled them up, threw in some fish and...you know what.....BUT by then you are hooked!!!! pun intended.
Helping kids and young people get started is very rewarding (kids of course with parents approval) and like myself there are still a few of us unemployed and equipment ain't on our budget!!!...but in a life or death situation for our tanks...we need the equip from time to time.

I would like some...but don't have anything for trade.... I would be willing to pay for shipping tho and a little extra on top just for the trouble

I sent you a PM. I have some Peacock Moss I'd be willing to trade if you have any left. Let me know.

TedsTank

Snakestorm and omni....I have sent you each pm's about getting the moss....no problems!!

Very kind of you Ted! I was given Java Moss and 1 anubia by another member and I absolutely love them both and they are doing very well. I haven't done anything special for the plants, just placed them in my tank. Generic lighting, no ferts or chems added to make them grow.

Hi Ted, I sent you a pm a while ago, do you still have some of the moss left. I dont have anything to trade but would love some. I am willing to pay for shipping. Let me know.

Thanks much

TedsTank

So sorry, never got message from you....just sent PM to you....will mail next week after this storm cleanup....Payment your option... I'm enjoying sharing it!!!

TedsTank

Sorry the offer is closed from this point, now. Hope to have more in the spring. Thank you all.

Was nice to meet omnitheforsaken. We swapped some mosses and had a nice chat. Met half way between our homes.

Thank you for being so generous. Since you don't have any more to share at this time, I'll go ahead and close this thread.
