Nutrient-enriched water is suspected if the willow moss turns blackish, or
brown-colored rhizoids are growing. One cause of these problems is worsened
water contamination due to the deterioration of water quality caused by
overfeeding or insufficient filtration capacity. Besides this, a rise in water
temperature can also be one of the causes.All aquatic moss which prefers a clean stream. Its appearance will thus be better if it is grown in
low-temperature water with low nutrient content. Some measures to improve such
problems are to cut off all the blackened willow moss; change the aquarium water
more frequently to lower the nutrient content of the water, and absorb and get
rid of excessive nutrients by using Activated Carbon with its high absorption capacity as the filter media. Then, wait for new leaves
to develop.
