I’m wondering if any of you have trained this to grow on and around wood? thinking of trying it amongst moss on spiderwood.

I want to provide shaded areas for my diamond tetra. I have some wood that is curved like an arch. Thinking of planting adding Java fern and anubias along the thicker areas and having a slower growing moss on the wood with some hydrocotyle-leucocephala trained round the branches amongst the moss

Would this work?
 
Yes, I have some around some wood. It grows well floating and is easy to trail around the wood. I don't have CO2, possibly if you did it might grow too fast, but it's an easy plant to trim and even smells nice!

Thanks. Wasn’t planning on co2 although I have the kit. I was going to use slow growing easy plants and it’s a dirted tank that I lightly does with the EI mix ferts

Good to know you are having success without co2

Yes - mine has started doing this of it’s own accord and grows like mad without CO2. It also does well emersed. Will post pic shortly!

EDIT: it’s way too horrifically overgrown to warrant a photo. Just let it clamber.
