Description
Azolla caroliniana is a floating aquatic plant that drifts at the water surface, trailing fine roots that shade the tank below and soak up excess nutrients. A favourite with planted-tank keepers across India, Azolla caroliniana adds a natural, healthy feel to the aquascape from day one.
In the aquarium, Azolla caroliniana needs no substrate and no CO2; simply rest it on the surface under bright light and it multiplies quickly. It is a natural filter, exporting nitrates and helping to starve out algae, while its dangling roots give fry and shrimp a safe place to hide. Thin it regularly so it does not block light to plants beneath. Given the right spot, Azolla caroliniana settles in and becomes a dependable part of the layout.
Azolla caroliniana Fast, free-floating and genuinely easy, it suits beginners and anyone wanting instant shade and cover in a community or breeding tank. Each order of Azolla caroliniana is a healthy, well-grown portion ready to go straight into your tank.
