African Water Fern ‘Bolbitus heudelotii’ - Aquarium Fish Tank Aquatic Plant

Bolbitus heudelotii is the largest species of its genus, with leaves that can grow up to 30cm. It is known for being low-maintenance, making it a more manageable option compared to other Bolbitus varieties. Its care is similar to that of the popular java fern.

As an epiphyte, it can be securely attached to rocks or driftwood with aquarium-safe glue they cannot be buried in substrate.

These plants are able to absorb nutrients through the water column, making them ideal for soaking up nitrates produced by messy fish. However, to ensure optimal growth, it is still recommended to use a comprehensive liquid fertiliser to provide all necessary micro and macro nutrients.
