Bacopa Caroliniana is an extremely decorative green plant with a thick stem overgrown by ovate leaves, which face each other in two whorls. It grows up to 40 cm tall, making it ideal for the third level of an aquarium.

In nature it grows in the swamps of North America. Bacopa Caroliniana is perfect for aquariums with low technology. It does not require excessively strong lighting, about 0.6 W/l is sufficient. In addition to its low light requirements, it also does not need intensive CO₂ fertilization. With fertilization accelerates the growth that, unlike other plants, is rather slow.

If it is regularly pruned, it is suitable not only for the third, but also for the second level of the aquarium. Cut stems can be planted in the substrate to compact the pile. Additional fertilization with preparations containing iron has an excellent effect.

Low maintenance and slow growth rate means that the plant does not require special attention from the aquarist. Due to its delicate root system, it thrives best in a fine substrate with the addition of peat balls or substrate.The optimum temperature is 24-25 oC. A short-term drop in temperature does not affect the condition of the plant. If the temperature is too high, the growth of the plant is often stunted and the stem may die.

Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from 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. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then place them at a small distance on the selected items

Bucephalandra sp. "Aqua Artica
Bucephalandra sp. "Aqua Artica Bucephalandra sp. "Aqua Artica" is an aquarium plant that likes to grow on rocks and roots. It is an endemic species from Borneo.Difficulty of cultivation: easyLight requirements: lowCO₂ requirements: lowHeight of adult plant: 10 cmGrowth: very slowTemperature: 20-27°CPlacement in aquarium: Second levelOrigin: Borneo Island, Southeast AsiaCup diameter: 6 cmThe genus name is derived from the Greek term 'bull's head' and refers directly to the dust sacs in the horn-like inflorescences. Bucephalandra sp. Aqua Artica is a beautiful and rather rare species native to Southeast Asia. It is an endemic plant from Borneo that is not often found in aquariums and can be considered a rarity.Bucephalandra sp. Aqua Artica belongs to the Araceae family, the picture plant family. The family counts up to 2,500 species, among which there are some epiphytes like Bucephalandra sp. Aqua Artica. In the wild, it grows on rocks, in streams and rivers with rushing currents, or on the walls of waterfalls.It prefers partial shade or even full shade. Its natural habitat is humid tropical forests where there is very little light. Borneo is in an equatorial climate zone, which means that there are dry and rainy seasons. As the rains come, the levels of the rivers rise, causing Bucephalandra to flood for months at a time. For this reason, the plant has taken on submersible characteristics and does well under water. When fully submerged, it is more intensely colored and has a finer leaf structure.Bucephalandra sp. Aqua Artica has creeping stems with the tip pointing vertically upward. The characteristic elongated green leaves with a prominent central vein are its special ornament.It grows slowly and does not exceed 10 cm in height. It is a low-maintenance species that needs no pruning and no intense lighting. It tolerates temperatures from 20 to 27 °C. However, it should be noted that it may lose its leaves in case of sudden changes in water or light parameters. Even if the plant loses its leaves but has a healthy rhizome, there is a good chance that it will recover and grow well again. Bucephalandra grows well in soft, slightly acidic water. The supply of carbon dioxide and fertilizers will favor the growth of the plant.It is not difficult to grow and can be recommended to beginners in aquaristics. It looks great in the background, attached to a root or rock. In any case, the roots of Bucephalandra should not be covered with substrate. Outside the aquarium, this species is also well suited for paludariums, where, however, it has less color and stiffer leaves.Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from 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. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then place them at a small distance on the selected items.

Limnophila sessiliflora
Limnophila sessiliflora An easy to grow stem plant, ideal for the background of the aquarium. It is characterized by its beautiful green coloration and rapid growth.Difficulty of growing: easyLight requirements: mediumCO₂ requirements: mediumGrown plant height: up to 60 cmGrowth: fastTemperature: 25-30°CPlacement in aquarium: Third levelOrigin: Asia6 cm cup diameterLimnophila Sessiliflora is an easy to grow stem plant, perfect for the third level of a tank. Native to Asia, the plant is characterized by pinnate leavesof light green color. They grow in groups of 6-9 leaves around the stem. Limnophila sessiliflora looks best incompact groups. Because of its structure, it makes an excellent hiding place for juvenile fish. The advantage of this plant is that it is easy to grow. It requires only moderate light, about 0.5 W/l. However, the plant adapts to the light conditions. In stronger light, the stems become thicker, the green color more bright and the structure more compact. In weaker light, the stems may elongate between the leaf nodes, which affects the appearance of the plant. It can be successfully grown without CO₂ supply. It grows up to 60 cm tall, which makes it a good choice for planting the third level of the tank. Its intense growth helps the aquarium look quickly overgrown. The growing stems can be cut at any point and then replanted in the substrate. In this way, we can quickly compact the clumps. The prerequisite for rapid growth of this plant is a constant temperature of 25-30°C. Although Limnophila Sessiliflora tolerates short-term temperature fluctuations well, it grows fastest at a constant temperature. Because of its growth rate, additional fertilization of the tank with iron- and potassium-rich fertilizer is recommended.Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from 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. Divide the contents of the cup into 3-4 cm lumps and then place them in the substrate..

JBL ProNovo Daph Nature S 100ml
JBL ProNovo Daph Nature Water fleas for all ornamental fish from 3 to 10 cmSun-dried water fleas (Daphnia) as an ideal food supplement for healthy ornamental fish Water fleas contain a lot of dietary fiber, are therefore very healthy and are eaten with great pleasure by all ornamental fish species Natural sun-drying process, for preservation of valuable ingredients No water turbidity: Better water quality due to improved digestibility of the food, reducing fish excretion Scope of delivery: original sealed, airtight and lightproof, recyclable tin with dosing aid in the lidIn the past, almost every aquarist caught water fleas himself in nature and fed them to his fish. Today it is generally forbidden for nature conservation reasons and many waters are now so heavily polluted that it is no longer safe to catch food animals. JBL uses trusted suppliers who have legal access to absolutely clean waters with harmless water flea populations. The water fleas are preserved and packaged directly after catching by sun drying. In this way, their valuable ingredients and dietary fiber are preserved and benefit the diet of ornamental fish. Water fleas (Daphnia): They grow to 1-5 mm in size, biologically belong to the gill-foot crabs and thus to the freshwater plankton of stagnant waters.They do not belong to the stream fleas (Gammarus), which grow up to 2 cm long, look completely different, live rather in flowing waters and belong to the amphipods. Jumping crabs (Cyclops), on the other hand, are much smaller (0.5-1 mm) and belong to the copepods.

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.

Rotala rotundifolia 'Green
Rotala Rotundifolia 'Green' Rotala Rotundifolia 'Green' (Round-leaved Rotala) is a mid-ground plant. It is characterized by fast growth and moderate light requirements. The color is usually light green.Difficulty of growing: easy Light requirements: medium CO₂ requirements: not necessary Height of mature plant: 50-60 cm Growth: fast Temperature: 20-28°C Placement in aquarium: third level Origin: South Asia, Southeast Asia Cup diameter 6 cm The natural range of the round-leaved Rotalas (Rotala rotundifolia) is South, Southeast and East Asia. It has been spread by humans to Australia, the United States and Brazil, among other places. She is thus already almost a globetrotter.Rotala rotundifolia 'Green' is very similar to Rotala rotundifolia, but its leaves remain bright green even in bright light. This plant is characterized by its fast growth and its tendency to spread profusely, especially when regularly pruned. It tolerates medium light levels, but the higher the light, the more intense the plant's growth and colors. If left to grow freely, it reaches a length of 30-60 cm, cutting off access to light to the lower parts, where it begins to lose its leaves. Under favorable conditions, if left uncontrolled, it can dominate an entire tank, especially if it is a tank with a small capacity. Once it reaches the surface of the water, it begins to float on it. It does not need additional carbon dioxide fertilization unless you want to accelerate its growth even more. It is tolerant of pH and water hardness, although like most plants, it cannot tolerate extremes. It tolerates temperatures between 20 and 28 °C, but thrives better in the upper end of this range. It can grow in both an active and a poor substrate, but in this case it is advisable to fertilize under the roots. In well-lit, CO2-fertilized aquariums, it may require additional fertilization with macronutrients due to its rapid growth. Otherwise, it will lose its color and the leaves will become smaller. Rotala rotundifolia is propagated in the aquarium by cutting off stem pieces and placing them in a selected spot in the substrate. When transplanted to a new tank, it will need some time to acclimate and grow faster.Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from 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. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then place them at a small distance into the substrate.

Limnophila aromatica
Limnophila aromaticaLimnophila Aromatica (fragrant limnophilia) is a beautiful plant for the second or third level. It turns purple under intense light.Difficulty of cultivation: moderate Light requirement: medium CO₂ requirement: medium Adult plant height: up to 50 cm Growth: moderate Temperature: 22-28°C Placement in aquarium: second or third level Origin: Asia Cup diameter: 6 cm Limnophila Aromatica (fragrant Limnophila, rice paddy weed) is a plant that has earned a place in aquariums around the world due to its unique appearance and leaf color. It is native to Asia, where it usually grows in rice paddies or swamps near water. It does well after the end of the rainy season in a dry place in a still moist, sandy soil. At high temperatures, the plant flowers, forms fruit, and then dies. Traditionally used as a spice, especially in Vietnamese cuisine. Its flavor is reminiscent of cumin and lemon. Currently, the plant can also be found in America and Australia.Limnophilia Aromatica is a stalk plant that produces lance-shaped leaves with serrated edges. Their color depends on the intensity of light. If the plant has little access to light, its leaves are green. If the light is strong, the entire top of the plant is intense red and the leaves are purple on the underside. In aquariums, plant it in the second or third level, leaving a distance of 1.5 cm between cuttings. It grows quite fast, its optimal pH is 6-7. It tolerates temperatures between 15 and 30 °C, but it is better to avoid extreme temperatures and keep it between 22 and 28 °C. In aquariums it is propagated by cutting and planting young plants that form on the stems or from the tips. The plant does not require absolute CO₂ fertilization, but grows much faster with CO₂ addition. To achieve the desired intense red-purple color of the leaves, the plant must be strongly illuminated. In addition, attention must be paid to the correct water parameters in the aquarium, especially the optimal iron, nitrate and phosphate content, so that the plant can absorb the nutrients from the water column. Due to its strongly developed root system, the plant grows best in active media.Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from 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. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then set them at intervals of 1 to 2 cm.

Plants have a task in the cycle in the aquarium. Firstly, they release oxygen and secondly, the plants take in excess nutrients as food - this is important, as otherwise an algae plague can develop. Thus artificial plants never replace the use of living aquarium plants.

Pogostemon Erectus (Indian star plant)
Pogostemon erectusPogostemon Erectus is a green-stemmed aquarium plant. It looks especially attractive when planted in compact groups, in the background.Difficult to grow: moderately demanding Light requirements: medium CO₂ requirements: medium Height of the adult plant: up to 40 cm Growth rate: moderate Temperature: 20-28°C Aquarium location: Foreground, background Origin: Asia - India Cup diameter 6 cm Pogostemon Erectus, or erect chard, is a decorative, light green stem plant that resembles a mini-conifer in its growth. It belongs to the light family. It is an ideal background plant. It is best planted in groups, as it forms dense clumps that provide a background for other aquarium species. Pogostemon likes to grow above the water surface. Pogostemon grows between 15 - 30 cm tall, but can reach up to 40 cm under favorable conditions. The width of a single stem is usually not more than 3 cm. The plant needs quite a lot of light, otherwise there are no major care requirements. Due to the moderate growth rate, pruning is rather rare. It tolerates water with a pH of 5.5-8 and water hardness of 1-20° dH. Pogostemon can be propagated by planting cut tips in the substrate. Pruning is recommended to maintain a compact structure. This variety is not difficult to grow as long as it receives sufficient light (at least 0.5 W/l). CO₂ fertilization is advisable.Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed of 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. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then place them at a small distance on the selected items..

Taxiphyllum sp. 'Flame' (flame moss)
Taxiphyllum sp. 'Flame'Taxiphyllum Flame is a moss genus from Southeast Asia with upward stems that resemble flames. As a mid-ground plant, it is often placed on roots.Difficulty of growing: easyLight requirements: lowCO₂ requirements: lowHeight of mature plant: 5-15 cmGrowth: mediumTemperature: 18 - 28°CPlacement in aquarium: Middle ground, on the decorationOrigin: Southeast AsiaShell diameter 6 cmThe compact, upright and gently swaying stems give the impression of a green campfire up to 15 cm high. Therefore, the Taxiphyllum is often called flame moss or burning moss. With its interesting growth habit, flame moss is great for decorating horizontal areas and can also be used as a lawn. It looks great when grafted onto branching roots. Ideal for nano aquariums, shrimp tanks, but also for larger tanks. Unlike most mosses, it grows quickly in height and spreads much more slowly laterally. It grows well on roots, rocks, coconut shells or other decorative elements. It has no extensive root system, so it is not suitable for planting in the ground. The Taxiphyllum does not need strong lighting or carbon dioxide fertilization to grow well. However, it will grow faster with stronger lighting. It tolerates a wide temperature range from 18 to 28 °C. Frequent water changes encourage its growth, but it does not tolerate rapid changes in water parameters. It grows well in both soft and hard water. It thrives without additional macro- or micronutrient fertilization. Pruning helps the plant to compact and grow, creating a strikingly dense bed. Pruning is done with sharp moss shears. The cut branches can be reinserted into the aquarium to propagate. Thein vitro culture of plants is carried out in tissue culture laboratories. The cuttings are free from snails, algae or pathogens thanks to the sterile production conditions.Planting:The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from 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. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then place them on the selected items at a small distance..

Wuchshöhe 5 - 10 cm Herkunftsland Zuchtform Eignung Aquascaping, Barschaquarium, Gesellschaftsaquarium, NanoCube Typ  Aufsitzerpflanze Familie Araceae Gattung Anubias Vermehrung Seitensprosse am Rhizom Wuchsgeschwindigkeit langsam pH 5 - 9 Wasserhärte 0 - 30 °dh Hinweise Auf einen Stein oder eine Wurzel aufbinden Eine weitere und auch neue Varietät des Zwergspeerblattes ist die Sorte ´Gold´. Sie ist im normalen Kulturbestand in einer Gärtnerei in Taiwan entdeckt worden. Nach der Isolation hat es einige Jahre gedauert, bis ein stabiler Bestand vorhanden war. Durch die hellgrüne bis goldgelbe Blattfarbe unterscheidet sie sich deutlich gegenüber den anderen dunkelgrünen Anubias-Arten. Die Beleuchtung sollte hier nicht zu schwach sein, da die Pflanzen sonst wieder dunkler in der Blattfarbe werden.
