Ok, I like Java moss and think that it can be very pretty, but I have heard that it is VERY hard to control and can turn into a problem if it gets rooted into places were it should not be... suck as your filter. Should I be careful when consdiering Java Moss, or just have a field day.
 
once it gets a foothold yeah it can be a problem it can grow every where and once you have it its almost impossible to remove but other then that i love the look of it .
so if you do use keep it mantained dont let it go wild

Cool, thanks!
 
Thanks for the warning
 
Try to bunch some round or near bogwood, it will take
root on the wood after a while and look great.
 
wat i would do is when it starts to get out of hand just bring it to a friends house or give it back to the lfs....or you could make a sweet scarf out of it...lmao...my grandma could make it for u
 
I have moss growing over a small log. In my opinion its great stuff and havn't had problems....yet!
