Have you every heard of fairy moss? Is it safe for turtles to eat? I have found someone who grows organic duckweed but it is sold mixed with
Fairy Moss. My RES love duckweed and I want to get it from an organic place. I've never heard of fairy moss before.

I like fairy moss---some always comes along when I buy water hyacinths. It spreads quickly and can become colorful when grown in the sun. My turts don't like it nearly as much as duckweed, so it has a good chance of staying around a while. :D
