Product description

Callicostella prabaktiana is a rare Asian aquatic moss admired for its lush,

feathery fronds and deep emerald color. Naturally found on rocks and wood in

shaded forest streams, this moss creates elegant, layered textures that soften

hardscape and provide shelter for shrimp and small fish. Its graceful, fern-like

branching pattern makes it ideal for nature-style aquascapes, paludariums, and

blackwater biotopes where subtle detail and movement are key.


Hardy and versatile, Callicostella prabaktiana attaches easily to driftwood,

rocks, or mesh and thrives in a wide range of water conditions. With low to

medium light and steady nutrients, it forms dense mats that require minimal

trimming. Perfect for beginners and expert aquascapers alike, this slow-growing

moss adds timeless beauty and natural depth to any aquascape while remaining

low-maintenance and algae-resistant.


Difficulty: Easy (forgiving and low-maintenance)

Light Requirement: Low to medium

pH Range: 5.5 – 7.5

Temperature: 68 – 82 °F (20 – 28 °C)

Placement: Foreground, midground, or hardscape attachment

Growth Rate: Slow to moderate

CO₂ Requirement: Not required (benefits from low-level CO₂)

Propagation: Fragmentation; simply cut and reattach pieces
