Fertilising moss?

I understand moss needs potassium, phosphorus, nitrogen as well as trace minerals etc. what would the best way to fertilise this moss be? It's superglued onto plastic. Various hypnales mosses. Can I use fish water? I just sprayed with distilled as it was dry but not sure what to do from here tbh

Fragrant moss that grows on leaves

It's possible this isn't even a moss, and this photo only shows a thin network of what can grow to be a distinctly mossy mat on the leaves. It grows almost exclusively on the leaves of trees and is not uncommon in subtropical rainforest riparian zones in Northern NSW and SE Queensland where I live.

The most distinctive feature it has is a pleasant aniseed or sarsaparilla fragrance it gives off as you brush past it. This is very unlike any other moss I've encountered, which seem to all just smell earthy and mossy.

Does anyone know what this is?
