Riccia Fluitans - Tropica 1-2 Grow!

Product Description

Riccia Fluitans can be tricky to maintain when submerged, mainly because it always grows towards the surface and you often as it grows pieces floating up to the surface. It should be tied down to rock or mesh pads using fishing line and place in a well lit area. It is best grown with CO2 injection and will produce the much sought after oxygen bubble at the leaf tips, which is a wonderful effect. You can also use this as a floating plant as protection for your fish.

How to plant your tissue culture plants:
  1. Remove plant from packaging
  2. Rinse and wash away any gel/liquid
  3. Divide plant into 6-8 portions
  4. Plant directly into your substrate
Each pot has a diameter of 60mm. All tissue culture plants are free from snails, algae and pesticides. The cups can be kept for a relatively long time before planting (sometimes weeks) meaning you can plant when you are ready. Keep in a cool place, sub 20 degrees and out of direct sunlight. Tissue culture plants are young plants with strong roots and are in much better health than their potted versions. Only open cups before planting to avoid contamination. CO2 and good fertilization will promote healthy growth.

  • Best UK Aquascaping

    Dave and the guys at Aquarium Gardens are without doubt the leaders in their field of Aquascaping. My wife and I have visited several times over the last couple of years and have always received fantastic advice and guidance. Two years ago we had one small tank, we now have three aquascapes all running CO2, this definitely wouldn’t be possible without all the support from the guys at Aquarium Gardens. Carry on doing what you’re doing because your business model is superb…..thanks once again Malcolm & Cheryl Orgill

  • Quick service, fantastic plants

    I have ordered from Aquarium Gardens for the first time after seeing them on social media. Well what can I say except WOW, the plants were a really good price, they arrived on time actually quicker than I expected! They arrived in absolutely fantastic condition as if I had picked them out myself, well packaged. The plants themselves were bigger than what I expected to get so definitely value for money and the root systems were well established, can't wait to see them get bigger in my aquariums. Will definitely buy from this company again.
