How should I attach it in the aquarium?
How should I attach it in the aquarium?

Is the scientific name for this moss definite?
Not yet. Its full botanical identity hasn't been established, and ongoing study may eventually reclassify it under the genus Isopterygium.
A low, trailing aquarium moss supplied in 1-2-Grow! format that helps aquascapers add soft, cascading coverage to wood, rock or moss walls without demanding much care.
Taxiphyllum alternans 'Taiwan Moss' grows sideways and overhangs its support instead of growing upright, giving it the appearance of a miniature weeping moss. It suits aquascapers who want to attach moss to branching wood or vertical rock, build a moss wall, or disguise equipment inside the tank. Because it's rated easy to keep, it helps even inexperienced keepers add soft, natural texture to hardscape without demanding special care.
Growth responds well to good light and a little added CO2, filling in with denser branching when conditions are stronger. Even without supplementation, it continues to grow steadily under easier care.
You receive a pack of three cups of the moss in 1-2-Grow! format. Hardscape such as wood or rock used for mounting it is sold separately.
Its exact botanical identity hasn't yet been fully confirmed. Ongoing research may eventually place it within the Isopterygium family instead.
