This plant is one of the best-looking floating plants for the aquarium and it propagates quickly. Red Root Floater (Phyllanthus fluitans) is a South American floating plant that is known and highly desired for its bright red roots and underside. Under high lighting, its leaves can turn completely red! Micro Aquatic Shop🌿🌿

Care is extremely easy for Red Root Floater. It can thrive in a relatively wide pH range as well as low to high lighting. Its only major-specific requirement is that it reportedly does not do well with a high level of surface agitation. It is best kept in an aquarium with gentle water flow. Under these simple conditions, it will multiply very quickly and provide significant denitrification as well as oxygenation, which is particularly important in aquariums with low water flow. It does not require CO2 supplementation.

Like most plants, Red Root Floater will benefit from supplementation such as Seachem Flourish, Flourish Excel, nitrogen, iron, and other plant supplements.

  • Bright red roots and underside under any lighting

So easy

Unfortunately half of what I got was unsalvageable but there was enough left that I now have a booming population after a month! Such easy plants, they grow like crazy! Definitely one of my favourite plants :)
