Product Description

IMPORTANT: Our aquarium plants may vary in growth forms. Because of this, please understand how to properly transition and acclimate plant(s) into desired form(s). We do our best to thoroughly clean and inspect all plants prior to shipment but cannot guarantee lead bunch or potted plants to be free from snails and/or algae. Not your thing? Please consider purchasing tissue culture aquarium plants! 

Tissue culture plants are cultivated in sterile lab settings ensuring your plant is free from pests, snails and algae! These are young specimen that are grown in emersed forms. Gel should always be removed prior to planting.

LIVE PLANTS ARE SUSCEPTIBLE TO STRESS AND DAMAGE FROM TRANSIT - This may appear in the form of minimal melt, leaf loss, cosmetic damage, etc. Refunds or replacements will not be issued for plants with viable root systems or that die out of our care.

Ceratopteris Thalictroides, more commonly known as Water Sprite, is a fast-growing aquarium stem plant with bright green, decorative foliage. Loved by beginner hobbyists, Water Sprite is extremely easy to keep in a planted aquarium and offers an undemanding nature along with quick growth. Its wide growth is good for filling in empty space in a planted aquarium tank. Much like other classic easy aquarium plants, Ceratopsis Thalictroides does not require too much care and can adapt to a wide range of aquarium tank parameters. Water Sprite also helps in absorbing excess nutrients from the water column, helping to outcompete algae, preventing its growth and promoting a cleaner water column for aquarium tank inhabitants. 

As Water Sprite grows quickly, it has the potential to grow unruly if not maintained and pruned regularly. We recommend this aquarium plant for the midground and background aquatic plant choices in a planted tank. It is suitable for the larger spectrum of nano aquarium tanks to larger standard sizes. Propagation is simple and trimmed stems can be replanted into quality aquarium soil.
