Description

Riccia Fluitans Crystalwort is a great foreground plant. It forms a dense carpet with sufficient lighting and Co2. Riccia is a floating plant. To help it stay submerged, it is tied down to rocks or driftwood with fishing line or a  plastic mesh. Constant pruning is needed as it grows quickly and will become dislodged from its original position. Crystalwort is a very common plant in Aquascaping and has been made popular due to Japanese Aquascaper Amano Takashi. Also great to have as a floating plant for hiding places for small fish and fry.
