    Was this anubias cut back any time in the last few months? The circled parts in the pics look like either flowers or new leaves/shoots (possibly some of each). Typically, these are both more likely to occur near the growing tip of the rhizome, unless there has been disturbance (like trimming or breakage or change in light or whatever). 

    Actually yes, the very end of it and about a week afterwards is when this new growth started coming in.

    Since this post I have torn out the majority of my moss, here is one piece that still remains. It is/was definitely Christmas moss.

    @JoeQ I am confused why you call that Christmas Moss. I do not see any parallel branches on any of the main branches that make the Christmas tree shape. This looks like the mislabeled Java Moss hybrid that I keep getting from LFS's with a couple random length parallels. 

    Attached is a picture of some that I found. But it still is not that full consistent triangle but at least it has equally spaced parallels.

    Mine initially looked leggy, but once it started filling in, it looked very similar to this picture @JoeQ shared, and since posting this thread, it has grown out significantly and is undeniably Christmas Moss.

  3. I haven’t kept them with other fish, but in my experience they are pretty aggressive toward each other. They don’t seem to be nippy, but I watch the larger females constantly harass and chase the males and other smaller females around. Others may not have a problem and it could just be my batch 🤷‍♂️
     

    Are yours that way toward each other?

  4. I have been breeding some red coral platies for several months now. They have pumped out hundreds of fry, but there is this one, probably a juvenile now, that was born with some black spots directly above and below the point before its tail fin. I have read that this could be cancer or part of genetics. If that is the case, what can I expect as far as breeding goes?
