Plant ID Please!


Recommended Posts

I saw this interesting plant floating around in a tank at my LFS. I asked them what it was and they thought it was Java Moss, but I highly doubt that since I have Java moss at home and it does not look like this. I was thinking it is a type of Fissidens moss. Could I get some help IDing this plant?

Was it really floating at the water surface, or just drifting around in the current?  I have Java moss in several tanks, and it doesn't float.  It sits in a corner at the bottom of the tank and behaves itself.  Does it float for other people?

It was floating in the tank, it didn’t have much current.

Mine mostly sinks too, except if I just did a water change or something.
