Die Heimat dieses noch nicht sicher bestimmten Mooses ist Südostasien. Der Name Flammenmoos leitet sich von dem besonderen Wuchsverhalten ab: Die aufrechtwachsenden Triebe sind mehr oder weniger stark verdreht und erinnern an züngelnde Flammen. Pflege und Kultur sind einfach, ein radikaler Rückschnitt ist jederzeit möglich. Durch das Aufbinden des Mooses auf freistehende Wurzeln und dünne Wurzelästen erzielt man eine besonders attraktive gestalterische Wirkung. Der charakteristische Wuchs kommt hierbei besonders gut zur Geltung.

Die Sorte "Thailand" besitzt die schmälsten Blätter der drei verschiedenen H.coymbosa-Varietäten. Bei guter Beleuchtung färben sich die Blätter rötlichbraun, bei normaler Beleuchtung mittel- bis hellgrün. In offenen Aquarien kann man auch die kleinen, violett farbigen Blüten beobachten. Typisch für ihre emersen Triebe ist die Behaarung der Stängel und der generell festere und steifere Wuchs. Hygrophila-Arten eignen sich auch gut für Paludarien und Feuchtterrarien.

Das kleine Pfeilkraut ist eine beliebte Aquarienpflanze mit sehr schmalen, bandförmigen Blättern. Auf den ersten Blick sehen diese den Blättern von Vallisnerien sehr ähnlich. Die Wuchshöhe der Sagittaria subulata var. pussila ist sehr variabel von wenigen Zentimetern bis zu 40 cm. Nur bei guter Beleuchtung bleibt das Pfeilkraut schön kurz für den Vordergrundbereich. Durch regelmäßiges Entfernen von Ausläufern mit längeren Blättern kann man den Pflanzenteppich kurz halten. Im mittelharten bis harten Wasser wächst diese Art am besten, bei der Wassertemperatur ist die Art sehr tolerant.
Salvinia auriculataSalvinia Auriculata (Brazilian salvinia) is a floating plant native to South America. It grows moderately quickly so that its population can be controlled. Easy to grow. Absorbs nitrogen to combat algae. Propagates by spreading.Difficulty of cultivation: easy to mediumLight requirement: medium to highCO₂ requirement: lowHeight of the adult plant: 0.5 cmGrowth: moderate to fastTemperature: 22 - 24°CPlacement in the aquarium: SurfaceOrigin: South and Central AmericaCup diameter 6 cmSalvinia Auriculata (Brazilian Salvinia) is a floating ornamental plant. It is native to the calm, still waters of South and Central America. It can be found from Paraguay to Cuba. It owes its popularity above all to its original appearance. Its small oval leaves with a diameter of 10 mm cm are arranged opposite each other on an elongated leaf stalk. These leaves are covered with fine hairs that trap air bubbles, allowing them to float. Depending on the light intensity, they are wavy or flat. Salvinia forms a third type of underwater leaves on which the spores are deposited.Like all floating plants, Salvinia is recommended for shady waters . Its great appetite for nitrogen and phosphorus compounds makes this plant a good ally in the fight against algae.
Salvinia has low light and nutrient requirements. It grows well in both moderate and strong light. As a floating plant, it does not require a substrate but draws all the necessary nutrients directly from the water. During the vegetation period, it reproduces by spreading, whereby the growth rate is moderate. This makes it easy to control its growth and remove excess plants. It grows to a length of 3-6 cm and likes warm, humid air, so it is advisable to use a glass or cover when growing it.It should be placed in such a way that no condensation falls on the plants. It adapts very quickly to the new parameters. However, it should be borne in mind that it will die if there is too little light. It thrives best in soft to medium-hard water at 22-24°C.
The in vitro culture of plants is carried out in tissue culture laboratories. Thanks to the sterile production conditions, the cuttings are free from snails, algae or pathogens.Planting:The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed of the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Place the plant on the surface of the water.

Kann auch auf Steinen oder Wurzeln wachsen, was für eine Stängelpflanze eher untypisch ist.
Eine neue Art aus Indien mit ungewöhnlichem Charakter. Sie ist erst seit wenigen Jahren im Handel und wird immer häufiger in faszinierenden Landschaften gepflanzt. Einerseits sind ihre Blätter sehr attraktiv von rostbraun bis olivgrün, andererseits ist die Blattform schön fiederschnittig. In Kombination mit einfach geformten Pflanzen verstärkt sich der Ausdruck dieser ornamentalen Blattform. Eine weitere Besonderheit ist die Fähigkeit, auf Steinen und Wurzeln zu wachsen - für eine Stängelpflanze völlig untypisch.
Mando Dark Gravel from JBLThis gravel is ideal for plant care in freshwater aquariums. Its porous structure promotes root growth and is also suitable for burrowing fish.Nutrient buffer with high iron content. Can absorb excess nutrients and release them as needed. High iron content can be absorbed by plant roots and activates the soil flora by promoting effective and rapid colonisation with beneficial soil bacteria. This curbs unwanted algae growth, relieves the filter and makes the water crystal clear.In addition, its dark brown colouring accentuates the colours of the fish and creates a harmonious overall picture with the green and red tones of the plants.Available in 3 litre, 5 litre or 10 litre bags
Anubias barteri var. glabraAnubias barteri var. glabra' or Anubias minima. This is a recommended species for aquaria with little light. Ideal for medium-sized tanks. The plant is easy to grow, does not require intensive fertilization and reproduces by dividing the rhizome. In vitro plant.Difficulty of cultivation: easyLight requirement: lowCO₂ requirement: lowHeight of the adult plant: 15-25 cmGrowth: slowTemperature: 20 - 22°CPlacement in the aquarium: Middle groundOrigin: AfricaCup diameter 6 cmAnubias Barteri Var. Glabra is a green plant from the Asteraceae family that is native to the swamps of Africa. It can grow both under water and in water. It can be found in the trade under the name Anubias minima. Unlike other Anubias, it is easy to plant in the substrate and has characteristic lanceolate leaves that grow up to 15 cm long. It can reach a height of 25 cm, but grows slowly so that it can also be cultivated in small aquariums.
The plant has a rhizome from which roots grow that wrap tightly around the spot where it is planted , making it ideal for planting on roots or lava rock. It is suitable for a second or third planting
Anubias thrives at different temperatures. It is suitable for cooler tanks as well as warm, tropical aquariums, e.g. with discus fish.It tolerates hard, soft, acidic and alkaline water. It prefers weak, diffuse lighting. It can become overgrown with algae under prolonged and intensive lighting. It is therefore advisable to plant it in darker or even shady areas of the aquarium.This plant does not like neglected aquaria and prefers the water to be changed regularly and no dirt to accumulate on its leavesIt grows slowly but forms a very attractive shape, especially in a group that forms a green, decorative clump. It feels very comfortable in tanks with a low water level and looks great in 'dachshund' type aquariums, where it creates the effect of an aesthetically pleasing tank. Thanks to it, we can create very interesting compositions. It is also well suited for aquariums with cichlids and other herbivorous fish
It does not require special care, it is enough to remove older leaves, which stimulates the rhizome to form cuttings. If you want to obtain new cuttings, you can regularly divide the rhizome into 2-3 cm long sections.
To attach the Anubias to roots or stones, a very thin string, thread or a special adhesive for attaching aquarium plants is sufficient.
The in vitro culture of plants is carried out in tissue culture laboratoriesThanks to the sterile production conditions, the cuttings are free from snails, algae or pathogens.Planting:The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed of the gel under running waterThis is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water.

Wabi-Kusa Bio BottleWabi-Kusa basically describes a small plant ball that is planted in a container. The Bio bottle FD250 is a shapely glass in which you can create and maintain your own small plant world. Thus, entire mini landscapes can be created - there are no limits to your creativity!
The planted glass, can be placed in the home or workplace and decorate any place, with a bit of nature. You can basically choose two types: either choose a planting with terrarium plants - that is, a mini dry terrarium, or choose plants from aquaristics (more common form). In this case, it is easiest to choose plants that also grow in the emersed form (i.e. above water). Aquaristic plants that grow emers often bloom differently than they do submersed. In-vitro plants are best suited for planting in a Wabi-Kusa jar. It is also possible to grow submerged plants in a Wabi-Kusa, but this does require some practice. To ensure natural circulation of moisture, there is a condensation drain in the glass to ensure that moisture is not lost as quickly. The jars are supplied with a form-fitting lid, to ensure normal air exchange, a small hole was drilled at the top of the side.Designed plant glass for Wabi-Kusa cultures Minimalist, cool design Bring you a piece of nature in any room - easy to maintainDimensions: (W x H) 270 x 508 millimeters; volume 28.7 liters Lighting: LED 10 watts, 5600 Kelvin

Recommended as an algae stopper for all new installations. Care instructions
The hornwort is a cosmopolitan plant that can be found in many bodies of water around the world. We found the free-floating stem plant in huge populations in a tributary of the Rio Miranda on the edge of the Pantanal in South America. The growth rate of the stems is enormous, so they have to be constantly pruned. Ceratophyllum is considered a "miracle weapon" against algae growth. The explanation is quite simple: the plant is a strong nutrient consumer and removes the algae's food source. The use of hornwort is recommended for every new aquarium.Wir sind sehr bemüht, dass unsere Pflanzen gesund und unbeschädigt bei Ihnen ankommen. Trotz grösster Sorgfalt, kann es vorkommen, dass Pflanzen durch den Postversand oder andere unvorgesehene Ereignisse, leicht beschädigt sind.

Die Wassertemperatur betrug 23 °C, das Wasser war kristallklar bei hoher CO2-Konzentration. Hydrocotyle verticillata wirkt sehr natürlich mitten in einem Hemianthus-Teppich, wenn kleine „Schirmchen“ herausragen.

Regelmässig zurückschneiden.
Hygrophila polysperma gehört zu den „einfachsten“ Pflanzen in der Aquaristik. Selbst unter schlechtesten Bedingungen kann sie noch einigermaßen weiterwachsen. Verbessert man die Wuchsbedingungen, gedeiht die Pflanze natürlich deutlich besser. Bei guter Beleuchtung färben sich ihre Triebspitzen rötlich braun. Sie wächst sehr schnell, deshalb muss sie öfter als andere Stängelpflanzen zurück geschnitten werden. Für die Erstbepflanzung und als Algenvorbeugung sehr zu empfehlen.
