Dennerle - Vesicularia ferriei 'Weeping Moss'

Introduction:

Vesicularia ferriei 'Weeping Moss' is a distinct and decorative moss variety appreciated for its cascading, weeping growth pattern. Native to parts of Southeast Asia, this moss produces soft, trailing shoots that hang downward, making it ideal for creating naturalistic aquascapes with a “draped” or curtain-like effect. Commonly attached to driftwood or hardscape positioned higher in the aquarium, it delivers an eye-catching, overgrown look that adds depth and softness. The in vitro form offered by Dennerle guarantees a clean, pest- and algae-free start, making it especially suitable for shrimp tanks and moss-focused layouts.

Care Requirements:

• Water Parameters:
  Temperature: 20–28°C
  pH Range: 5.5–7.5
  Hardness: Soft to medium (2–10°dH)

• Nutrient Requirements:
  Minimal fertilization required, though trace elements and liquid micronutrients can improve growth. CO₂ is not necessary but helps promote denser, more vivid growth.

• Tank Setup:
  Minimum Tank Size: 10 litres
  Substrate: Not required; attach directly to wood or stone
  Decorations: Excellent for tying to elevated driftwood or rocks to allow natural downward growth
  Lighting: Low to medium; moderate light helps define its weeping structure
  CO₂: Optional

Care Tips:

Rinse the in vitro gel thoroughly before use. Divide into small tufts and attach using fishing line, thread, or aquarium-safe glue. Position on vertical or overhanging hardscape for best weeping effect. Occasional trimming helps maintain shape and prevents buildup of detritus. Ensure gentle water flow to avoid displacement while encouraging natural trailing.

With its flowing, draped structure and ease of care, Vesicularia ferriei 'Weeping Moss' is perfect for creating enchanting, overgrown effects in aquascapes. Whether forming moss curtains or accenting driftwood, it brings a soft, natural feel that enhances both minimalist and jungle-style layouts.
