My tanks are all planted with temprate moss, Ohio, and I have had no problem with it dying out or the like. I have been unsucessful with the moss typically found in sidewalks, but the courser moss that tends to grow on rotting wood now totally occupies my tanks. I'll have to take some pics this weekend and post them so you can see what kind I'm talking about.
All I have ever done is keep the moss moist with city tap water and let nature take its course. I have been able to take store bought craft moss and after rinising the dye out got it to grow, but that takes months and in the mean time you have a lovely brown tank.
I've experimented with moss and buttermilk/yogort and all I ever get is mold. I want to do more experiements with it, but with school starting I don't have the time or money.
Keep us posted, and yes, pictures would be nice.
