Two things about this poll surprise me: that people are voting for Java moss, on a couple other WEB sites I put this poll on, its actually in first place in front of everything else! I am also surprised Christmas moss is still that popular. I kinda figured fissidens would be at the top since it is so different looking.

I would attribute this to java and x-mas being so widespread through the hobby, whereas the rest are relative newcomers.

For the record, I chose "other", as my favorite of the ones I've kept is Peacock.
I am looking forward to trying FF and weeping in the near future.

I grow Fissiden F and Splach in low light low tech. They are slow to grow and they turned brown before they started to grow well. I hear this is normal.

Under my conditions Christmas moss grew shaggy. I did not like it. So I am still working on a favorite.
SW grows really nice balls that stay down

I love the look of fissidens! Is it possible to grow in a low light tank w/no co2? I would like to buy some, but I want to make sure it will live first! What factors favor it?
