Aquatic plants add vibrancy and life to the aquarium. Our vast collection of aquatic plants cover requests ranging from hardy, low maintenance species such as Anubias for beginners to the rare and exotic choices of Bucephalandra and other plants for the advanced hobbyist. Keeping aquatic plants in an aquarium tank provides a natural source of water filtration, security for fish and are proven to be an outlet for stress relief while encouraging productivity and a positive mood. Luckily, you’ll never need to remember to water them.
STEM BUNCHED
A Variety Of Colors, Sizes, And Shapes
Aquatic stem plant bunches are 4-8 young plants or stems that are bundled together with the help of a small anchor to keep them weighted for easy keeping. As stem bunches generally have a small root system, we recommend keeping a consistent maintenance schedule and performing water changes regularly to encourage healthy growth. Roots establish generally quick after planting in a quality aquarium substrate. Stem bunches are relatively easy, fast-growing aquatic plants that are ideal for the start-up phase.
POTTED
Simple To Display And Organize
Pots are usually packed flush and contain a larger mass of aquatic plants that are, in most cases, more mature with a developed root system. Potted aquatic plants provide a healthy portion of plants that can be divided into several portions or, depending on the plant, can be planted in an aquarium as one piece. As the name suggests, the plants come in separate little pots that are quite easy to transport and display to one’s liking.
PLANTED DECOR
Ready To Use
Our aquatic planted decor contains a wide selection of coconut husk, coco fiber, stainless steel mesh, driftwood and rocks that are readily planted. Great for beginners, aquatic planted decor aides in creating an instant aquascape. Fitted with low maintenance aquatic plant species such as Anubias, Ferns, and mosses, aquatic planted decor can be used to create an entirely new aquascape layout, as a nice accent piece in an existing aquascape or added to give a sense of maturity in a planted aquarium from the start.
TISSUE CULTURE
Algae, Pest, And Disease-Free
Tissue culture plants are very young aquatic plants that are cultivated in-vitro by laboratories who specialize in propagating aquatic plants. The growth method used for tissue culture guarantees that these plants are free from any pests, algae, and pesticides making them 100% safe for even the most sensitive shrimp and fish. There is a vast selection of plant species that are available via tissue culture and its compact growth gives a very generous portion for planting. Utilizing quality fertilizers and CO2 in the initial stage will encourage beautiful and healthy growth from the beginning.
NOTE: It is important to remove the tissue culture agar gel before planting. Simply wash the gel away, divide, and plant.
