Water Spangle, Salvinia Minima, Live Aquarium/Aquatic/Freshwater/Floating/Pond Plant/Planted Tank/Aquascaping/Paludarium by Aquarium Plant Center (12 Plants, 60+ Leaves)

This is one of my favorite aquarium plants. It does a great job cleaning the water column, provides cover for fish and unlike water lettuce it does not produce roots long enough to reach the substate at the bottom of an aquarium. As long as you provide water spangles with plenty of full-spectrum light or sunlight and the water it floats on has at least some nutrients in it you should be good to go.A few tips:1. This plant does not like strong water current. Filterless aquariums or aquariums with low flow are best for water spangles.2. In a covered aquarium it can be prone to rotting from condensation on the leaves. Lidless aquariums are best.3. This plant likes bright lighting (6500K or more is ideal) but you need to make sure there is ample space between the light and the plant. Unless you install a light source that is elevated above your aquarium by at least four inches you may need to drop the aquarium water level a few inches.4. Water spangles can strip the water column of nutrients, so if your fish stocking levels are low and you have lots of other plants in the aquarium that feed from the water column you may run into nutrient deficiencies in which case a little liquid fertilizer may be in order.You can't go wrong with water spangles. I've had success with it in lots of different setups, from large aquariums stocked with livebearers to gallon jars filled with pond water on windowsills and stocked with scuds and ramshorn snails. If you can't get this plant to thrive you might as well stick to plastic plants.

great!! i was worried the leaves would turn brown, i have never bought a aquarium plant online before! But these were great! The leaves have not turned brown or died at all and are absolutely thriving in my tank. I love them and they have doubled in 2 weeks, they grow pretty fast. I don’t have a special light or anything like that just a standard LED light that came with my 10 gallon fish tank at petco. These plants are thriving, tbh i’ve never written a review before on amazon but i just had too because i am so satisfied with my purchase! I do recommend

After getting the first shipment lost in the mail. I contacted the company for a replacement and they couldn't have been nicer about it. They checked my local weather to make sure the plants could survive the whole trip and promptly sent a replacement. It arrived today in spectacular shape. Looked freshly packed. Beautiful green leaves without a hint of brown anywhere. The double order was enough to cover an entire corner of a 55 gallon top fin tank. Looks amazing floating there. I can't wait for it to grow to cover the entire top of the tank. I'm in hopes it helps with my algae problems. Even though it only gets the cover lights and every fish I have eats algae, I still have it covering everything. This should reduce the light under it hopefully reducing my algae. Fingers crossed. I won't hesitate to order from theses people again should I need something. I recommend this product and the company highly.

I’m should’ve ordered more! I love them, they are so cute and they are perfect for the top of my tank! They came quick, they were well packaged and alive! They are very very very green, roots are healthy, and they weren’t dry at all!

Thought these would be great. Let them grow before adding them to my tank. My fish ate them all,

The plant is healthy and very much alive. The leaves and roots are both in good condition with no signs of damage or disease. I don't think I had any hitchhikers, not that I could see. Very satisfied! Here's to hoping this plant survives and thrives in my brown thumb aquarium...

The plants I received were carefully packed to keep them moist and alive, but not much padding to protect them from shipping damage. Mostly green, some yellow, also tiny. I mean really small. When I added them to the pond, there just wasn't much to them. And they sort of drifted apart and got stuck on stuff. The next morning I went to check on them and the turtle had eaten most of them. So they didn't live long. I wouldn't buy these again now that I know how immature the plants are. Even if they had come with instructions about how to mature them before adding to a pond, but instructions were not included. The plants definitely didn't work out as planned. I would say save your money and use it for mature plants, because these aren't worth it.

Love got it for my new 20 gallon it’s currently in my quarantine tank but it’s perfect great amount !
