Hornwort is an easy-to-care-for floating aquarium plant that does not grow roots and cannot be planted in substrate. It forms a dense, floating clump, providing a perfect refuge for baby fish and shrimp. Its floating nature makes it an excellent choice for enhancing water quality, as it effectively absorbs excess nutrients, helping to maintain a stable and healthy aquarium environment.
Key Benefits:
- Refuge for Fry: Ideal for baby fish and shrimp, offering protection and shelter.
- Water Quality Improvement: Absorbs nutrients from the water to reduce algae growth and maintain a balanced ecosystem.
- Goldfish Safe: Compatible with goldfish and other aquarium inhabitants.
Important Note: Avoid using snail removal products with Hornwort, as they can be harmful to this plant and may cause it to deteriorate.
For optimal growth, ensure that Hornwort receives sufficient light and maintain regular water changes to support its health and effectiveness.
