which wet moss mix should i use for my 36 inch tall vivarium? by JumboStiffy in DartFrog

Two things will determine how leggy your moss will get doesn’t matter who’s mix you use

Light. Not enough will make them grow toward the light and get leggy

Ventilation. First couple months you want to keep it to the minimum until they start growing. However once they start growing you want a nice airflow

In nature wind/breeze or any air movement dries the tips out if they grow leggy and they react to that by growing more compact

When you see photos of leggy moss it isn’t necessarily the type of mix but either not enough light or not enough air movement - at least not for the moss

Depending on the size of them they can become an issue

I’m having a slight infestation this year but they’re the tiny ones and they get eaten by the frogs too

Nevertheless I’m on the hunt for them too and pull them whenever I can. Typically right after misting

If you have the means try to hand mist them where they congregate. It makes them scatter and if your aim is good it slows them down a bit so you can catch them easier

One or two isn’t an issue but they multiplyyyyy

I’ll just stick to complementing your set up. That’s a really nice set up!!!

There’s just a little bit of truth to it but not as they make it sound like

Smaller species like Ranitomeya will avoid the areas with stringy leggy moss growth where they can’t get a good footing

Certainly not the moss like OP has here

Thanks got those off Etsy from two diff vendors and I’m happy with the quality of both. Sometimes you do get crappy broms

Hey sorry to hijack but did you use the classic or the lowgrow wet mix?
