Tex Gal Moderator	Re: 60lt ' New layout ' 2009 I have to say that I agree with Steven about the flame moss. I really like it, except for that. I'm sure the look will soften some when the background grasses grow up. Perhaps a fissidens?

eco-mod Senior Member	Re: 60lt ' New layout ' 2009 I am interested to see how this all grows out. I agree with the others about the flame moss growing too vertically and ruining the illusion of trees or remote branch growth. Could you provide some tech specs on the tank, setup, plants, fauna, etc?

Hi, thanks to all for your comments and compliments!

Hi Steve, thanks for your comments and help about the setup!

Regarding Flame moss, it is the first time that I use it. I want to keep all moss low, so the problem of being tall, it will not happen.
The big problem for now is the growing of Lilaeopsis, it is the first time that I use it and at moment I don’t see any development. Anyone that uses it before can explain me what is happening? Some plants take to much time to adapt to the new form (submersed) and only after 1 month start to spread, but in my case I see only a few runners and nothing more…
