Customers praised the Fissidens moss for being "lush, full and green" with healthy arrival and generous portions. The moss is described as a "slow grower" but "well-behaved" and "fantastic." Shoppers appreciate fast shipping and easy propagation. Some concerns about the slate's artificial appearance and occasional shipping stress, though most recovered well.
- The moss was so lush, full and green right out of the package
- Packaged well, alive on arrival, love how green they all are
- Came with a lot of long and thick moss. Arrived green and healthy

Nice looking moss! I detached it from the slate it came on and tied it to a rock in my aquarium with some fishing line so it will grow and cover the whole rock!
S
Repeat buyer. I have been buying from APF for a while now and I'm never disappointed in their products or services.
N
I only got the Fissidens on the rock because it was the less expensive option. I’m not too crazy about the artificially rectangular shape of the slate rock (it actually looks more like a thin slab of cement). I’ve had Fissidens fontanus in the past, (delivered from China) at half the cost and much better condition, despite the much longer shipping distance. This one arrived rather beat up-looking, all flattened, despite the shipment arriving on time, within days. It was only strung onto the “rock” with string and not fully covering the slab. It’s now been in my tank for more than a couple of weeks and is slowly recovering. I intend to take portions from the slab to apply to other surfaces, then probably get rid of the slab (or maybe make it a carpet somewhere).
Fissidens is a slow grower and a fantastic, well-behaved moss. In think it will do fine. My last batch was growing like crazy in my tank (in all the desired places), but got killed off by the salt that I had to use to treat a fish illness (parasite).

Packaged well, alive on arrival, love how green they all are. :)

Looks really healthy and came attacked very well

Fast shipping, love the product
J
First time customer. My moss and the other plants I ordered all arrived in good condition, looking healthy. Thanks! I'll probably order here again.
R
I have ordered the Fissidens Fontanus two times now and both orders were great. The second order was a bit better, the moss was very thick and long.
E
Great products. Good customer care.

I have ordered numerous mosses through the years and I have to say that hands down my APF order has been the best right out of the package. The Fissidens on the slate was so lush, full and green I was able to pluck fronds from the slate on the second day to tie and cover some small pieces of spider wood. Didn’t even make a dent in the fullness of the moss colony on the slate. A week later it is doing great both on the original slate and on the driftwood I propagated some of it over to.

Came with a lot of long and thick moss. Arrived green and healthy. I actually detached most of it and put it on hardscape... hopefully it works out.
L
It was a little stressed when I got it but has since perked up and is growing great! There was no melt or anything with it!
K
Great customer service, quick shipping and quality as described.
Definitely will come back.
Thanks.
F
These arrived quickly, and are greening up nicely. Will definitely be looking here when I next need plants.
L
Moss arrived healthy and happy, portion as described
d
Fast shipping and good price what the amount of moss you get. The moss arrived brown, most likely due to the cold weather. It is slowly recovering with good lighting and CO2. I will definitely order from APF again but not in cold weather.
N
The moss arrived looking very healthy and I'm excited to watch the progression of "floofiness" as it grows out. Shipped quick, too! I really prefer this slate base over stainless steel options for anchoring moss. It blends in really well with the rock and mossy driftwood aesthetic we already have in our freshwater tank. Most importantly, the fish have approved of the front lawn design. Will definitely order from APF again.
D
Very interesting concept. Still living and looking forward to it growing into the surrounding rocks!
