Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- Java moss grows nice and fast
- Under 80, you probably can't kill java moss.
- java moss is great!
- shrimps are nice too and just require a stable setup with java moss.
- Anubias, Water Sprite, Valisneria, Crypts, Java Fern, Java Moss-root tabs
Cons
- Plants already in my tank include Java fern, Java moss, Anubias nana petite, and Echinodorus Red Phoenix
- Most of my moss is fissidens fontanus, some spots have Java moss that somehow made it in with the driftwood I had. I wouldn't call it a nightmare but it could spread if you don't control it.
- My experience with java moss is it clogs up the filter if you dont spend time removing some every week.
- I glued Java moss to mopani wood, while I personally regret that decision and wish I had gone with a slower growing plant like a mini buce
- I am currently thinking about Red Root Floaters and Java Moss but am debating on Water Wisteria

I loved my Java moss when I first got it. Now… I cannot eradicate it. It keeps taking over my dwarfhair grass, wisteria, even growing all over my Java ferns and shit even at the top of the tank in the frogbit. It’s a weed imo and idk why so many people recommend it and I wish I didn’t listen lol.
