A floating plant ideal for all aquariums
Phyllanthus fluitans is a floating plant that adds a touch of originality to the water's surface. It is distinguished by its rounded, hydrophobic leaves that form small air pockets, allowing it to float easily. The more intense the lighting, the more its leaves take on a reddish hue, making it particularly attractive.
Its red roots cascade underwater, providing a perfect refuge for surface-dwelling fish and invertebrates. This plant is ideal for betta splendens and other species that thrive in subdued light.
An ally against algae and excess nutrients
In addition to its unique aesthetic, Phyllanthus fluitans plays a key role in aquarium balance. It absorbs excess nutrients , thus limiting algae growth. Its rapid growth helps maintain cleaner and more stable water.
It can be combined with other floating plants to create a natural effect and perfect balance in the tank. However, if it grows too much, it is advisable to thin it out so as not to completely block the light from the submerged plants.
Foliage that changes depending on the lighting
Phyllanthus fluitans is unique in its ability to change color depending on light intensity. Under moderate lighting , its leaves remain green. However, under strong light, they take on a stunning coppery-red hue, adding a remarkable aesthetic dimension to the aquarium.
This feature also allows you to play with light intensity to achieve the desired effect in your tank. It thus offers a dynamic decoration that evolves over time.
How to properly use Phyllanthus fluitans in vitro?
This plant is grown in vitro in the laboratory, ensuring superior quality without unwanted pests or algae. To install it:
Remove the plant from its in vitro pot.
Rinse thoroughly under water to remove the nourishing gel.
Divide into several portions and arrange them on the surface of the aquarium.
