Phyllanthus Fluitans Red Root Floater Portion Live Aquarium Floating Plants Tropical Fish Tank Decor

Listing is for 1 portion similar to the photo. Phyllanthus Fluitans, commonly known as Red Root Floater. This live aquatic plant is a must-have for fish tank enthusiasts, offering vibrant green foliage and striking red roots that create a mesmerizing surface display. Perfect for tropical and freshwater aquariums, the Red Root Floater not only adds a touch of elegance but also serves as an excellent natural shade and shelter for fish. Its leaf coloration depends heavily on environmental conditions, particularly nitrogen availability. Under nitrogen deficiency, even in low light, the leaves turn a vivid red. Conversely, with adequate nitrogen, the plant can maintain its green coloration, even under high light levels. Its adaptability makes it an intriguing choice for aquascapers seeking to experiment with nutrient and lighting setups. Phyllanthus Fluitans is unsuitable for aquariums with hoods, as it does not thrive in enclosed environments. In such setups, the plant may deteriorate. For tanks with a hood, Salvinia Natans is a better alternative.
