Our Tissue Cultured Tropical Moss Inoculant contains a blend of 5 different tropical mosses/liverworts. This is a limited offering and is painstakingly made in our laboratory under sterile conditions from in vitro cultures. Unlike any other moss blend offered before in the US, our inoculant is only made from sterile tissue cultures and is itself sterile besides the mosses and liverworts–it is 100% free of contamination such as viruses, bacteria, fungi, and pest invertebrates. Only uncommon tropical mosses and liverworts have been used, the assortment of which will be detailed with your culture for later identification. Lastly, our moss blend is 100% sustainably grown in our laboratory and is suspended in a nutrient medium which has been formulated to be 100% safe for your vivarium or terrarium unlike traditional nutrient mediums which must be washed off.

This blend may include Riccardia Chamedryfolia liverwort (Rare), Pearl Moss, Nano Moss, Flame Moss, Taiwan Moss, Java Moss, and many more from our collection of over 20 tissue cultured mosses and liverworts.

To use, take a 10mL syringe or pipette and apply to moist areas in your vivarium such as your background, wood pieces, Sphagnum moss (dead), or substrate. Mist daily for the first three weeks or until established, ensuring the moss does not fully dry out.

You will receive 1 50mL flask per quantity selected. Each flask is filled with approximately 25mL of nutrient suspension and approximately 10mL of moss/liverwort tissue. One flask can cover approximately 1-3 square feet depending on how densely the tissue is dispersed.
