Elevate your aquascape with Bolbitis Heudelotii, the highly prized African Water Fern. This magnificent aquatic epiphyte is famous for its elegant, translucent, emerald-green fronds that add a unique architectural texture to any freshwater tank. It loves areas with moderate to high water flow, where it can absorb nutrients directly from the water column through its dark, creeping rhizome. Slow-growing and exceptionally durable, this low-maintenance fern thrives in a variety of light levels and is naturally resistant to plant-eating fish due to its tough, leathery texture. Please note: Product images are AI-generated and will vary from the actual plant received.
Key benefits:
Translucent Emerald Foliage: Intricately textured, glass-like green fronds bring an incredibly unique visual depth to your underwater scenery.
Flow-Loving Epiphyte: Performs beautifully in medium-to-strong water currents, drawing its nutrients straight from the water flow.
Herbivore Resistant: Stiff, durable leaves make it a safe choice for aquariums housing larger snails, goldfish, or cichlids.
Specifications:
Form: Loose Bare-Root / Rhizome
Growth Rate: Slow
Placement: Midground to Background
Light Requirement: Low to Medium
Co2 Requirement: Low (Beneficial but not required)
Water type: Freshwater
Suggested use: Do not bury the horizontal green rhizome in your sand, soil, or gravel, as this will suffocate the plant and cause it to rot. Simply secure the rhizome to a piece of driftwood, lava rock, or hardscape decoration using a small dab of aquarium-safe gel glue or thread.
What’s included: 1 x Loose rhizome portion of Bolbitis Heudelotii
