What makes this plant special?
Riccia fluitans is a floating plant made popular by the well known aquascaper Takashi Amano. Although it is a floating plant it can be kept submerged as shown in all of the pictures. It can be used as a foreground plant to make a beautiful carpet by attatching it onto small rocks on the aquarium floor where the plants will overlap each other creating a mat. You can also tie Riccia to driftwood with a piece of fishing line to make it resemble a tree. With added CO2 and in good growing conditions small oxygen bubbles form on the leaf tips. New shoots always grow towards the surface and can be kept to your desired shape by trimming it. This moss is great for breeding since it provides valuable coverage for the fry. It is also very hardy making it a great beginner plant.
Difficulty: Easy Growth: Rapid Ideal Temperature: 72°F - 82°F (22°C -28°C) pH: 6.5 -7.5 Lighting: low-medium (you can have high lighting if you have a good algae cleaning crew like amano shrimp) Propagation: rip off sections and glue or tie on to rocks or driftwood (do not plant in substrate) C02: not required but recommended
All of our plants are grown 100% underwater! This prevents plants from melting when adapting to underwater environment

Product as described. Very impressed by the packing, which beats 99% of sellers that I have dealt with. Three layers: (1) sealed plastic bags, protecting the plant and the water; (2) insulated bags, protecting the inside bag from heat and code; and (3) foam boards outside the insulated bags. What a wonderful seller!
I finally have red plants not only living but thriving in my aquarium. I've tried so many and failed. I'm over the moon that these plants are growing and are so pretty.
