Dubyana is another very popular and undemanding aquarium moss. Good beginner
plant, it can be cultivated in almost any kind of water. Also known as Java
Moss, this plant has a deep green color with tiny leaves. Java Moss is
intensively branched with lots of tiny stems surrounded by rhizoids and
leaves. The rhizoids are used by the moss to attach itself to substrates.
Vesicularia Dubyana do not have any role in nutrient absorption. Because it
has not roots, Vesicularia Dubyana should not be buried in gravel. Cultivation
of this plant should be done by spreading a thin layer of Java Moss on top of
a solid substrate as a rock or a piece of root. This can be done by attaching
it to the substrate with a thin fishing line or a cotton thread. Although it
does not require strong lighting, it should be spread equally so every stems
have access to the light. After a few months, it will anchor itself to its
substrate and the fishing line could be removed. Some hobbyists have
experienced good success in letting Java Moss float at the surface of the
aquarium or in stapling it to a piece of driftwood. Almost any substrate can
be used for Java Moss to attach to (even the aquarium glass!). This plant can
be grown submerged or emersed. In the wild, Vesicularia Dubyana grows on the
trees and stones of the very humid region of Southeast Asia.
