      It works extremely well. I want to put it on my filters to keep baby shrimp and plants out of it. Cleaned up one of my 2213 and there was so much dead plant matter in there!

        I highly recommend it specially if you have baby shrimp or fish, or using a canister filter it keeps almost everything large like decaying plant matter out of your filter... you do have to clean the screen like once every couple of weeks but I just rinse it out with dechlorinated water.

          I'm not entirely sure what he has is good for ninja shrimp since most of the brands he carries caters to Neos and Bee shrimp. All of my shrimp attack barley like tossing out a steak in front of a lion. You can get food samples from him too! Food samples are sold by the gram. They're listed towards the end above the tweezers and scissors.

            Fissiden in a 2x2! I'll take like 8-10. What do you guys think about the ss mesh though? How long you think it will be good for before it starts corroding and leaks out toxins?

              Probably several years. It's the good SS stuff. I'll put you down for 8 2x2 ss mesh Fissidens. Did you still want java moss and wisteria?

              Some Facts:

              T-316 Stainless Steel Wire Mesh has a higher level of corrosion resistance than that offered by T-304 Stainless Steel Wire Mesh.

              T-316 Stainless Steel Wire Mesh is the preferred choice for corrosion resistance in marine applications. Other popular uses for T-316 Stainless Steel Wire Mesh include specific food processing, pharmaceutical, and filtering applications.

              Specs:

              Wire Thickness - 0.018"
              Hole Opening - 0.048"

                SS is safe for aquarium use. Many ppl use SS mesh to make moss carpet.

                @Mistahoo: get me the SS one for 2217 please. I forgot which one it is.

                          I wanted to give them a try to see if I like them. I'll just go ahead and order through him since I don't want duckweed or any other floaters mixed in it.

                              I like the dwarf chain swords better, but they're a PITA to plant. Not as bad as HC while submerged though.

                                Cool. No java moss anymore. I didn't see the Hygriohilas difformis on there? Is it the bare root one like this? Link below..
