Rhizophora Mangle
Mangroves are a hardy semi-aquatic plant that can thrive in almost any aquarium as long as the top of the plant is not submerged. They are one of the few plants that can happily grow in saltwater, brackish water, and freshwater. In addition to decorating your tank, they help keep your water clean by filtering out nitrates. This is a great beginner plant for anyone new to aquascaping. Just give it some light and watch it grow!
The Red Mangrove is the most popular mangrove species in the aquarium hobby, and for good reason! They are the most bullet-proof variety and most efficient at water filtration.
Note: These plants are currently acclimated to freshwater.
Care Instructions: Place plant in soil, sand, or allow it to float in water. The water can be fresh, brackish, or salt. Make sure the roots are submerged and the leaves are above water. They do best in full sun or with an equivalent grow light. The water can be room temperature or heated.
Dimensions: ~12”
