Josh's Frogs Sheet Moss

If it is a temperate moss, then yes, it will eventually need a dormancy period.

You're right, Bill. I never took into consideration that he might not live in a temperate area. XD I apologize Krispy.

i should mention though, that temperate mosses, like our native mosses, will do well in vivs. for a while. but inevitably, i am answering a "why did my moss die?" thread.the only success i have had using local (SE PA) mosses, was to let them dry out for a few weeks, then rehydrate and grow in a growout container for a few months. i still have some growing in one of my tanks from a few years ago. but that's the only bit i still have left.

We also pour almost boiling water through it for bugs. I cannot remember the forum that had the writeup. No i am in SW pa. Greensburg actually. Yes the moss does look, well brownish(but not dead) from time to time. What saves the moss i think is the ultrasonic fog machine we rigged. That and the wife. If our house goes under 72f in the winter im in trouble lol. N not with the frogs...

Sorry it takes me a while sometimes. Fighting to get my darn d/l back. That and always building stuff so i quickly pop on and off...
