Many like them - small and large aquaria with beautiful plants and decoration.

The green aquatic dream is incomplete without mosses, though. They can be added to the aquascape in various ways, as floating plant or attached to rocks or driftwood, or as back wall.

In this richly illustrated book, the most popular mosses distributed in the aquarium hobby are presented, and their basic requirements are explained. The author has searched for aquatic mosses in their habitats on four continents, and he has gathered useful information for their cultivation in aquaria. Practical experience is abundant in this guide, and explanations e.g. on how the pros create moss cushions are given in detailed photo series.
