Amazon Frogbit Natural Habitat
Amazon Frogbit grows in soft and freshwater with a pH range of 6.0 –
7.5 with moderate light. Generally the plant is native to South
& Central America.
This plant is a floating plant, there is no need to continually
add CO₂ to the aquarium; you will however need to add fertilizer to
the water on a regular basis especially when you perform
water changes.
In most aquariums, the reproduction of the plants usually occurs through stem fragmentation. Through this process,
smaller plants grow from the main plant and will also grow
to form full new plants. Care should therefore be taken so as not to allow too many plants to grow, as this will block/reduce light required for submerged plants. The plants will multiply quickly in ideal conditions.
Also shrimp friendly.
Plants provided are approx 2-3" or larger.
