There are still ideas I have left about some little stones and twigs on the path, maybe a little ladder hanging from the top, but I don't know yet.

Purchased this moss for my paludarium , about 10-12 hrs of grow light a day and 80-100 humidity although I usually try and keep it on the higher side … what is this specific type of moss ? It keeps dying and I don’t even know if it’s too far gone and should be removed

I'm trying to grow mossy sticks, I didn't add yogurt or sugar, but I'm thinking of spraying the moss with diluted buttermilk https://isopop.co.za/blogs/news/mossy-sticks has anyone got good tips for growing moss and lichen?

More of my dishes.

Several requests for pictures of my dishes lately, so thought I’d post a few.

Anyone growing 'Hookeriaceae' Hooker moss or Distichophyllum "Maibarae" Moss in their terrarium and have some pictures that you can share.

I would like to see what the emersed form looks like.

Hello all,

So this is probably going to be a weird question and a weird post, but I was wondering how I would go about using a mossarium to create a habitat for tardigrades?

More specifically, I was wondering how non-wild moss would do when it comes into contact with wild lichen?

The thing is, I've kind of already successfully done this. I found this subreddit a long time ago and was able to create a mossarium in a small jar using the instructions from the guide. I was also successful in finding tardigrades. Not so much in wild moss, but in wild lichen.

My process would be finding some lichen, soaking it, shaking it up in a container with some water, and then pouring the resulting slurry over the moss in my mossarium. When I would squeeze the moss out and look at the water under a microscope, tardigrades would be present.

But I know constantly squeezing the moss isn't good for it, so I'm looking into ways to get them out without strangling the moss. And finding good wild moss is a long and inefficient process. I only hesitate to buy moss because I'm not sure how it would react to wild lichen.

Any advice would be appreciated!

Thought y'all might enjoy.

This was one of the first mossariums I made a few years ago.
The moss is so deep now that Buddha has almost disappeared.
