Willow Moss is a hardy, elegant aquatic moss with long, flowing fronds that resemble delicate green willow branches. It attaches easily to rocks, driftwood, or other surfaces, creating a soft, natural look in both coldwater and tropical aquariums. Its lush texture provides excellent shelter for small fish and shrimp while adding a calm, forest-like feel to the aquascape.
