Riccia Line

Riccia line is used to tie down Riccia onto stones and driftwood. 164 feet (50m) of strong line is included that does not dissolve over time in order to keep Riccia firmly attached to the surface, for this reason the line is tinted green to make it appear invisible when Riccia grows over it. You may also use Riccia line to attach moss to small stones, which can be difficult to attach using Moss Cotton.

Product Description

When tying Riccia to a surface, it is easiest to use flat stones, such as those provided in the Riccia Stone package. Make sure the riccia is evenly distributed across the surface for the most consistent growth.

usingriccialine

It is useful to make sure that the Riccia and the stone surface is damp so that Riccia clings to the surface while you tie it down. The most consistent way to make sure Riccia stays attached is to tie it in a checkerboard pattern from top to bottom and then left to right.

    Moss Cotton

    Mosses grow onto surfaces like driftwood and cling to them over time. However, initially they need to be tied down in order to properly grow. Moss Cotton is a specialty thread made out of cotton, with a dark green coloration (so that it is hidden from view). The thread naturally degrades over time once the aquatic mosses has taken root on the driftwood or stones.

    Wood Tight

    Aquatic ferns (such as bolbitus and java fern) and Anubias species do not root in soil. Rather they attach their roots to driftwood or stones. Wood Tight uses a brown colored (to blend with driftwood) vinyl over wire in order to temporarily fix these plants to driftwood initially, while roots take hold. After tying aquatic plants to the surface, it is easy to cut and remove with scissors.
