java moss!

Yesterday I drove to someone's house to purchase a handful of Java Moss. Couldn't find this anywhere in the local pet stores but read online that it does well in betta containers, and doesn't need much light -in fact will grow darker green in low light levels. So I'm hoping this will work, and my fishies can have a little bit of live plants in their bowls. I've also given Pinkie a fake skull full of hidey holes.
Of course Flash is still difficult to photograph, avoiding the camera. And his water still looks darker from the medicine treatment. Himself is doing fine! I've tied the Java Moss down to the top of the decorations in each fishbowl with a bit of thread. By the time the thread rots in the water, the moss should have anchored itself. The man I got it from said the moss will adhere to most anything that has a bit of porous or rough surface, and spread in a mat.
