reef and planted w/o water.. Moss garden!

[needmorecowbell]

Has anyone ever wanted the challenges of keeping coral, with the beauty of plants? Of course! But wait, there's a catch.... No water?!?! Yep, it's true folks, there's such a thing, and it's not that expensive.. A moss terrarium/ garden. I have just started a few, and I came to find they have a lot of things familiar with both of the hobbies we enjoy today. The mosses can kill each other of they touch (not with nematocysts of course, but still..), they have similar things you have to worry about ( ph, light, etc.), and they are plants! It's not very expensive, and you probably have the materials if you have an aquarium. Gravel and carbon for the substrate, and filtered water in a spray bottle are some of the things you'll need. Ask me some questions if your interested, I'll try my best to answer them! If anyone has some more knowledge, feel free to share, Thanks for reading!
