Product information "Taxiphyllum sp. 'Flame' (flame 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: easy
  • Light requirements: low
  • CO₂ requirements: low
  • Height of mature plant: 5-15 cm
  • Growth: medium
  • Temperature: 18 - 28°C
  • Placement in aquarium: Middle ground, on the decoration
  • Origin: Southeast Asia
  • Shell diameter 6 cm
The 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.

In-vitro plants are best suited for planting in a Wabi-Kusa jar. It is also possible to grow submerged plants in a Wabi-Kusa, but this does require some practice. To ensure natural circulation of moisture, there is a condensation drain in the glass to ensure that moisture is not lost as quickly.

Its narrow-lineal leaves, curved to the side, are green only in the center, the margin is white to pink. The shade is reminiscent of that of Cryptocoryne wendtii 'Flamingo' and 'Pink Panther'. So like the normal 'Araguaia', Hygrophila lancea 'Chai' grows submersed rather spreading and strongly branched. We recommend for Hygrophila lancea 'Chai' rather strong lighting, CO₂ addition and good macro and micronutrient supply. Growth is slow, and occasional cutting of shoot tips encourages bushy growth. Just like other stem plants, you can propagate this Hygrophila by heading and partial cuttings. Hygrophila lancea 'Chai' provides a unique bright pink color accent in the mid to foreground, best as a smaller bushy group. It contrasts strongly with dark plants and decorative materials.Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed of gel under running water.

Cut shoots can be planted in the Substrate to be planted and continue to multiply. The Staurogyne Repens has an interesting leaf structure and color. It is characterized by moderate growth and adult specimens reach a height of up to 10 cm. It is popular for arrangements in planted aquariums. It has a well-developed root system. It originates from South America, more precisely from the southern Amazon. In the wild it was discovered in the Rio Cristalino river. The plant is characterized by low light requirements. In good light, it does not grow too tall and forms a dense lawn. Less light is not a problem for it, but then it grows more slowly. The dosage of carbon dioxide and feeding with micro and macronutrient fertilizers ensure intensive growth. Staurogyne Repens absorbs nutrients mainly through its root system and therefore prefers a fertile substrate. Advanced aquarists, however, can keep this species attached to ornaments or decorations. It is enough to use a suitable adhesive. In this case, care must be taken to provide fertilizers to the water column. The best growth results are obtained when the plant is planted in an active substrate. Under good conditions, the plant grows very quickly. It does not require complicated care. All you need to pay attention to is regular pruning using sharp scissors with curved blades. Frequent pruning will help Staurogyne Repens become denser and grow. After pruning, it spreads and forms new stems with leaves. Therefore, it can also be used to create an interesting foreground. 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.

It attains a very intense green coloration and forms a dense forest in the aquarium. It has beautiful decorative narrow leaves. Unique to it is that the plant remains bright green even in above-average light, while other paddlers turn red. Also, it grows relatively slowly and has short stems that branch easily. Thanks to its compact growth, it does well in nano aquariums. Guyana plant contrasts well with red plants, especially when planted as background for them.It requires fertilization with micro and macro elements, and it is also worth feeding it with CO₂ in gaseous form. It does not need a very fertile substrate, as it takes up most of its nutrients from groundwater. However, if you put fertilizer capsules or tablets under its roots, the plant will also benefit. You can propagate Myriophyllum very easily by cutting the plant to a length of about 5 cm and planting a new shoot in the substrate. The plant quickly sprouts new roots and begins to climb upwards.The delicate leafy leaves of the plant form a very dense clump in the aquarium, which immediately catches the eye. Myriophyllum sp. 'Guyana' is an ideal plant for aquarists who love nano tanks and delicate plants. The stems branch very easily and thicken into a showy thicket. Frequent shortening aids the branching process. In elaborately designed cubes, it is a real eye-catcher.In larger aquariums, there is a risk that Myriophyllum is hardly visible in the midst of larger-than-life plants, unless you plant it in dense clumps. The plant comes from an in vitro cultivation, which means that it is free from snails, parasites and algae. A high-quality gel was used as the culture medium, so it can quickly and easily adapt to the new 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 3-4 cm lumps and then place them in the substrate..
