Christmas moss will grow faster with higher lighting, dry ferts and pressurized CO2. Mine is in 78° F water.

These darker green humps are Christmas moss growing on driftwood.

Another option is to just buy more. I think the cost is only $5 for a good portion of it.

Christmas moss is one of the mosses that does better with some form of CO2. A good running yeast/sugar/water DIY should work just fine. Adding nutrients helps too. http://www.aquascapingworld.com/plan...hp?item_id=114

I know what you mean about being broke. If I want something, I have to save up my pennies. It took me 5 years to get everything that I needed for my 40BR. LOL!
