Pellia moss( Monosolenium tenerum)

Monosolenium tenerum, often called Pellia Moss, is a unique liverwort that adds lush, textured greenery to any aquarium. Its broad, flat fronds create a striking contrast to finer mosses and make it a favorite for aquascapers looking to add depth and character to their scapes. Pellia Moss thrives when attached to rocks or driftwood, forming beautiful, natural-looking carpets or mounds over time.
