Biosphere ball with Java moss

Taxiphyllum sp. 'Flame'Taxiphyllum Flame is a moss genus from Southeast Asia with upward stems that resemble flames. As a mid-ground plant, it is often placed on roots.Difficulty of growing: easyLight requirements: lowCO₂ requirements: lowHeight of mature plant: 5-15 cmGrowth: mediumTemperature: 18 - 28°CPlacement in aquarium: Middle ground, on the decorationOrigin: Southeast AsiaShell diameter 6 cmThe compact, upright and gently swaying stems give the impression of a green campfire up to 15 cm high. Therefore, the Taxiphyllum is often called flame moss or burning moss. With its interesting growth habit, flame moss is great for decorating horizontal areas and can also be used as a lawn. It looks great when grafted onto branching roots. Ideal for nano aquariums, shrimp tanks, but also for larger tanks. Unlike most mosses, it grows quickly in height and spreads much more slowly laterally. It grows well on roots, rocks, coconut shells or other decorative elements. It has no extensive root system, so it is not suitable for planting in the ground. The Taxiphyllum does not need strong lighting or carbon dioxide fertilization to grow well. However, it will grow faster with stronger lighting. It tolerates a wide temperature range from 18 to 28 °C. Frequent water changes encourage its growth, but it does not tolerate rapid changes in water parameters. It grows well in both soft and hard water. It thrives without additional macro- or micronutrient fertilization. Pruning helps the plant to compact and grow, creating a strikingly dense bed. Pruning is done with sharp moss shears. The cut branches can be reinserted into the aquarium to propagate. Thein vitro culture of plants is carried out in tissue culture laboratories. The cuttings are free from snails, algae or pathogens thanks to the sterile production conditions.Planting:The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then place them on the selected items at a small distance..

The EloNature/characterThe breeding goal describes the Elo as friendly, balanced, suitable for children, docile, robust and resilient. It should have a high stimulus threshold, good social behavior, little tendency to bark and as little hunting behavior as possible. Many Elos are people-oriented, adaptable and initially reserved rather than pushy towards strangers. At the same time, the EZFG emphasizes that many Elos are strong-willed and intelligent and therefore need consistent training.GroomingRegular brushing is important, especially when changing their coat. In addition, the ears, teeth, claws and eyes should be checked as usual. The Elo is not a high-performance athlete, but needs daily walks, activity and close family contact.HealthThe EZFG attaches great importance to health checks. Extensive examinations are carried out before breeding approval, including HD x-rays, patellar luxation checks, some ED x-rays and eye examinations. This speaks for a health-oriented breeding approach, but is of course no substitute for careful selection of a reputable breeder and good breeding.EducationThe Elo learns well, but is often not simply "comfortable". The EZFG describes him as intelligent and sometimes strong-willed; especially at a young age he demands consistency. Calm, friendly and clear training with early socialization, firm rules and positive reinforcement works best.What are the special features of this breed?The most special feature is that the Elo was developed specifically as a family dog and the focus in breeding was on temperament and health rather than a strictly uniform conformation. In addition, "Elo®" is protected by trademark law and linked to EZFG breeding. In a way, the Elo is therefore less a classic FCI breed and more a controlled breeding project with its own standard.Suitable for first-time dog owners?Yes, often - but not automatically. The Elo is considered friendly and adaptable and is often described as suitable for beginners. At the same time, the EZFG points out that many Elos are strong-willed and intelligent and need consistent guidance, especially when they are young. They are often well suited to motivated beginners with a willingness to learn.Family dog or not?Yes, very clearly intended as a family dog. This is exactly what the Elo was originally bred for: as a child-friendly, friendly, strong-nerved and socially compatible companion. In a loving and consistent attitude suitable for everyday life, it can be a very good family dog.

Eriocaulon CinereumEriocaulon Cinereum is a very interesting and eye-catching plant species for the foreground of an aquarium. The plant is characterized by slow growth and the shape of the leaves resembles needles.Cultivation difficulty: moderately demanding Light requirement: high CO₂ requirement: high Height of the adult plant: up to 5 cm Growth: slow Temperature: 19-29 °C Placement in aquarium: in the foreground Origin: Asia 6 cm cup diameter Eriocaulon Cinereum is an undersized plant that does well in the foreground of an aquarium. This species is found on the Asian continent, especially in countries such as China and the Himalayan region. In China it is very common in its natural habitat, but in other countries it is hard to find. Recently, it has gained popularity due to its original and unique structure and characteristic flowers.The plant is characterized by very slow growth, as it takes about 6 months to form a rosette with a diameter of 10 cm. It reaches an average height of 5 cm. There must be a very fertile substrate, as the species has a very extensive root system. Through this, the plant absorbs most of the nutrients it needs for growth. It tolerates a wide range of water temperatures from 19 to 29 °C. It also grows in water with medium to high hardness,but prefers soft water. To ensure good growth, strong lighting and CO₂ dosage is essential, as well as micronutrient fertilization. Under these conditions, it will reward us with a beautiful rosette appearance with many young leaves.The propagation of this plant can be done in several ways. The easiest and most popular is the division of the rosette. This can be done as early as about a month after planting the plant in the aquarium. To get new cuttings, pull out a single plant and remove it from the water. Use a sharp tool to carefully cut the rosette into smaller pieces, and then use tweezers to place them in the substrate. After some time, the cut should be covered with new leaves, and the plant will take on a spherical shape.In aquariums, it likes to bloom, so its original inflorescences make an unusual decoration for any aquarium. Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself.
