Giant Willow Moss (Fontinalis Antipyretica var. Gigantea) is a very beautiful and lush moss that is very rare in Australia. 

Aquarzon has propagated and offered this since mid 2020, before any other aquarium shops in Australia. We originally got the specimen from a hobbyist in Australia. We guarantee this is 100% the true version.

This moss is very highly recommended as it grows lush, easy to care and provides a very natural appearance to an aquascape. It is beginner-friendly and suitable for low-tech tanks and it is usually fine with low lighting.

Based on Aquarzon's long-term observations, compared to the common Willow Moss, the Giant Willow Moss grows lusher, with fronds that are around 2 times larger.

It is very beautiful and a great fit for many aquascapes (the below photo shows an example of our aquascape using this moss).  It is best used around the foreground to midground area of an aquascape, especially when attached to driftwood or rock. It is perfect for rainforest and jungle-theme aquascapes as well as moss-scapes.

One of Aquarzon's customers who used to live in England shared with us that the Giant Willow Moss was sighted growing lush in very cold and fast running water in England. This matches with our experience that this moss thrives with good water flow and can grow well even in very cold water.
