Christmas Moss and Anubias Barteri on Natural Driftwood, Pre-Grown Aquarium Plants for Low-Light Layouts
These aquarium plants pair Christmas Moss and Anubias Barteri on natural driftwood, bringing broad leaves and fine moss texture into your aquascape. The plants arrive pre-grown on the wood, so you can position the piece directly in your layout without attaching each plant yourself.
The 4- to 6-inch driftwood piece creates a planted focal point in foreground or midground hardscape and provides cover for dwarf shrimp and fish fry. Both plants suit low light and have a slow growth rate; CO2 injection is optional. Keep the Anubias rhizomes above the substrate and trim the moss occasionally to maintain its shape.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I place this planted driftwood in my aquarium?
Place the Christmas Moss and Anubias driftwood directly on the substrate or among your hardscape. Keep the Anubias rhizomes above sand or gravel to help prevent rot.
Do these plants need strong lighting or injected CO2?
Christmas Moss and Anubias Barteri suit low light, and injected CO2 is optional. Maintain stable water conditions within pH 6.0–7.5 and 68–82°F.
What should I do if the driftwood floats?
Anchor the planted driftwood with a clean stone or secure it beneath heavier hardscape until the wood becomes saturated and stays submerged.
How can I trim the Christmas Moss without spreading cuttings?
Turn off filter pumps and powerheads before trimming the Christmas Moss, then promptly scoop or siphon out loose cuttings. Occasional light trimming helps keep the moss compact.
