Java moss and Malawis ?

Can you keep java moss with Malawis
The web is a bit vague about this
If it is plausible where can I get some and it would be lovely if it can grow on my silica background

 

I am not 100% sure, but I think the malawis will make a meal out of the moss. There are not many plants that they wont eat.

 

I need to agree with @Sean J our Malawis at the office chomp anything that remotly resembles a leaf...

 

Ouch is all I can say
They leave my java ferns alone ?
Plastic Plants then seems the only other way

 

@Corne you must me lucky lol the Java Ferns lasted a whole 5 minutes then I watch them have a snack...

 

Ok I need help and advice my setup is too spartan and bare,anyone willing to help

 

Chuck the malawis, get plant friendly fish, and plant the heck out of the tank!!!

 

I am stuck on Malawis
I was never keen on normal fish
I did keep Guppies too feed my oscars lol
Is there a LPS that is not insanely expensive on fake plants paying R60 for a small plant seems steep.That coupled on the R300 I spent on piece of driftwood that is still leeching outside got me a bit worried

 

@Corne, as mentioned, malawis and plants, not compatible at all. Unfortunately synthetic plants are a bit on the expensive side, I'll have a look for you around on this side if there is some cheaper ones available and will PM you if so, I'll be coming to Pretoria within about two weeks time if you are interested then maybe we can arrange something. I'll keep you up to date.

 

Thank you. It will be appreciated

 

My pleasure, just keep your inbox at eye.

 

@Corne, check your inbox, have just send you a PM.

 

Got it thanks
