Description
About Rіссіа Fluitans
Left floating unattended, this aquarium moss plant continues to expand as an amorphous mass. When tied down and submerged, new shoots grow upward and may need to be pruned. Weighing down aquarium netting with small stones and using it to cover the plant creates an attractive carpet for the foreground of the aquarium. The mature plant must be pruned regularly to let light penetrate the mass.
Propagation
Propagating the Riccia fluitans carpet plant is easy. Simply split the thick mats that form, and they will grow on their own.
