Anubias vs java moss - which is better?

Java Moss can also harbor detritus worms if not maintained. Anubias is cleaner but requires patience. Both have pros and cons.

Thanks for the tips, guys. I've got a basic LED light, nothing fancy, and just a couple of guppies. Sounds like Java Moss might be too much work.

With guppies, Anubias is a solid choice. The leaves provide good cover for fry if you end up with any.

Agreed. Anubias is more manageable long-term, especially for beginners.
