Description

Riccia Fluitans, commonly known as Floating Crystalwort, is a versatile and attractive aquatic plant known for its bright green, moss-like appearance. It consists of delicate, thread-like structures that form dense, spongy mats on the water's surface or attach to various substrates in the aquarium.

This plant is highly adaptable and can be used in multiple ways within an aquascape. When left floating, Riccia Fluitans provides excellent coverage for the water surface, offering shade and shelter for fish and shrimp, as well as creating a natural habitat for fry. When tied down to rocks, driftwood, or mesh, it forms a lush, green carpet or bushy background in the aquarium, adding a soft, natural texture to the layout.

Riccia Fluitans thrives in both low and high light conditions, though higher light encourages faster growth and a more compact form. CO2 supplementation is beneficial but not essential, making this plant suitable for a wide range of aquarium setups, from low-tech to high-tech environments.

In addition to its aesthetic appeal, Riccia Fluitans plays a functional role in the aquarium ecosystem. It helps absorb excess nutrients, reducing the likelihood of algae growth, and also contributes to oxygenating the water.

This plant requires regular trimming to maintain its shape and prevent overgrowth. Whether used as a floating plant or anchored to hardscape, Riccia Fluitans adds a vibrant, natural touch to any aquarium, making it a favorite among aquascapers.
