Additionally, Whirlfloc works faster than Irish Moss, making it a popular choice for many brewers.

there is a poisonous marine moss called noctiluca, but is only poisonous to fish.
^^ About that answer... I looked up Noctiluca, and the only thing I found was a protozoan. And a protozoan is definitely not a moss. Also, I was under the impression that moss - true moss, anyways; lots of plants have the name "moss" but aren't actually, i.e. Reindeer Moss, Irish Moss, Spanish Moss - is terrestrial, meaning there's no such thing as marine moss. Anyways, hope that helps!

Irish moss, also known as carrageen moss, adapts to its environment by attaching firmly to rocks or other surfaces in intertidal zones. It can withstand exposure to air during low tide by retaining water in its gelatinous structure, which helps prevent desiccation. This algae has evolved these adaptations to survive in the harsh conditions of rocky shorelines along the Atlantic coast of Europe and North America.

After a good rain (or soaking), hold moss down with one hand while gently pulling weeds out through fingers with other hand. Apply sulfur to moss (makes soil more acid which moss likes but grasses don't). Keep watered (encourages moss, makes grass roots shallow and "lazy") Don't use roundup. Bad for environment - killing and mutating little froggies that eat mosquitoes, etc. Good luck. It will be beautiful

Chondrus crispus( Irish moss) undergoes an alternation of generation life cycle common in many species of algae . There are two distinct stages: the sexual haploid gametophyte stage and the asexual diploid sporophyte stage. In addition there is a third stage- the carposporophyte, which is formed on the female gametophyte after fertilization. The male and female gametophytes produce gametes which fuse to form a diploid carposporophyte, which forms carpospores, which develops into the sporophyte. The sporophyte then undergoes meiosis to produce haploid tetraspores (which can be male or female) that develop into gametophytes. The three stages (male, female and sporophyte) are difficult to distinguish when they are not fertile; however, the gametophytes often show a blue iridescence

True moss is one of the few truly global plants. Mosses reproduce by spores and therefore are not as evolved as seed plants. Their spores are so tiny they rise up into the outer atmosphere traveling around the globe until they set down somewhere else on Earth. So a spore that originates in New England could land in South Africa or Japan.
There are other plants known as moss that aren't true mosses but a more advanced seed plant that resembles a moss. Irish moss, Sagina subulata is among the most widely planted in gardens. It is sold in flats that you can cut like a sheet cake into pieces used and used to create all sorts of unique effects.
You'll find a thorough description and photo of this plant at the Learn2grow site link below.
