Curly Fluitans in Cup - Tropica

Tissue culture aquarium plant in closed cup.

The Japanese Takashi Amano inspired many aquarists to keep the curly fluitans submerged, a 1-5 cm high cosmopolitan hepatic. It can be kept binding it to a stone with a piece of fishing wire, but the new shoots always grow towards the surface, so it may be necessary to prize with scissors. The curly fluitans will prosperate to the fullest with the addition of CO2 and in good growth conditions small oxygen bubbles are formed on the tips of the leaves. As a traditional floating plant offers good protection for young fish.
