Overview:
Riccardia chamedryfolia, commonly known as Coral Moss, is a highly sought-after liverwort prized for its dense, branching structure and deep green colour. Supplied in an in-vitro cup, this plant is grown in sterile laboratory conditions, ensuring it is free from pests, algae, and snails.
Its compact, coral-like appearance makes it perfect for detailed aquascapes, particularly when attached to rocks or driftwood. Riccardia chamedryfolia adds fine texture and a refined, natural look to foreground areas and hardscape features.
Care and Growth:
This plant prefers low to moderate lighting and benefits greatly from CO₂ injection, which promotes dense, healthy growth. Stable water parameters and gentle water flow help prevent detritus from settling within the plant structure. Regular liquid fertilisation supports steady development.
Attach Riccardia chamedryfolia to hardscape using thread or aquarium-safe glue. Growth is slow, but propagation is simple—trim small sections and reattach them to new areas.
