| the xmas moss is average in its growing speed. generally you buy it in golfball sized chunks. one of them would easilly cover that my bit of wood. The algae, I got that from uni, from the algae lab, but i reckon i could trim some off for ya, i need to give it a trim  _________________ Doug's Bristlenose eBook - The number one source of Bristlenose information and the most detailed breeding guide avaliable 3rd edition OUT NOW!!!
