Riccia fluitans for Aquascaping
Riccia fluitans can be secured to rocks, driftwood, and other hardscape using suitable aquarium-safe methods. Once established, it develops into a dense green cushion.
When left floating, it creates a natural green layer on the water surface. Attached growth can also be used to create textured moss-like formations in aquascapes.
Riccia fluitans for Shrimp Tanks
Its dense growth provides small spaces where shrimp can explore and forage. It can be especially attractive in planted shrimp aquariums where a natural appearance is desired.
