Tropica Java Fern Microsorum pteropus
Tropica Java Fern Microsorum pteropus is a water fern from Asia, 15-30 cm tall. To be grown on a root or stone, attached with fishing line until it has gained a hold. If planted in the bottom, do not cover the rhizome because it will rot. Easy to propagate by splitting the horizontal rhizome. A hardy plant that grows in all conditions. The black spots under the leaves are sporangia (reproductive organs), not signs of disease, as many believe.
Elodea Waterweeds
Elodea Waterweeds are fast-growing, hardy plants that oxygenate your tank and provide excellent cover for fry and shrimp 🐠🦐. Can be rooted or floated, making them perfect for beginners and breeding setups. ✂️ Trim regularly to keep growth under control.
Tropica Bucephalandra pygmaea 'Bukit Kelam'
In nature, Bucephalandra usually grows on rocks or wood in rivers and streams - much like Anubias, which they resemble regarding use and care in the aquarium. Bucephalandra 'Wavy Green' is an easy, slow-growing plant that prefers lower light levels. A nice, dense appearance is ensured by the willingness to branch, even without trimming. The green leaves are 2 cm wide and 5 cm long with wavy edges. Tiny white spots will appear on immerse leaves. The creeping stem, rhizome, must not be covered when planting. This will cause the plant to rot and die.
Anubias Spear Large
Anubias Spear Tip is a smooth spear shapped Leaf with a pointed tip and base. This variety has a broader shaped leaf than normal. Anubias is an epiphyte (plant that don't need to be planted in substrate) and therefore will prefer to be attaching to décor. One can use cotton thread or plant glue.
Water Sprite (Ceratopteris cornuta)
The Water Sprite (Ceratopteris cornuta) is a hardy, fast-growing plant that can be rooted or floated. Loved for its feathery green leaves, it provides shelter for fish and shrimp while absorbing excess nutrients to improve water quality.
Anubias Barteri Large
The Anubias barteri plant is a very popular plant in the aquarium hobby due to its visual appeal and how easy it is to care for. This plant will grow in just about any type of lighting, but its leaves grow more quickly and densely under high-intensity lighting.
Tropica Microsorum pteropus Trident Java Fern
Microsorum pteropus or Java fern is from Asia. Tropica Microsorum pteropus Trident Java Fern is a narrow-leaved, smaller form of Microsorum, which like other Microsorum is an easy and safe plant. ’Trident’ is both suitable for beginners, as well as the experienced scaper, and fits both smaller and larger aquariums. The name ’Trident’ tells that the plant leafs are tripartite, while the leaves can vary from whole to multipartite. Suitable for planting on stones or tree roots. When planted on the bottom layer, avoid covering the horizontal stalk. New, small plants are often created on the leaf tips, and can carefully be pulled off and planted.
Tropica Lilaeopsis brasiliensis
Tropica Lilaeopsis brasiliensis from South America can grow very compact, but a "lawn effect'' (4-7 cm tall) is only achieved at high light intensity. When planting in the aquarium small clumps (approx. 1/8 pot) should be placed a few centimetres apart to help the plants grow together more quickly. Place in an open position without shading from other plants to ensure good light. Lilaeopsis brasiliensis can be used in garden ponds, and also tolerates low salt concentrations in brackish aquariums.

Tropica Sagittaria Subulata
Tropica Sagittaria subulata from South America is an ideal, undemanding foreground plant whose short runners form a compact group. Place individual plants 2-4 cm apart. This plant may cause problems because in certain conditions it suddenly grows to a height of 50 cm when it grows older. But if it is then moved into the background it may become low again. In the aquarium, it sometimes sends a long flower stem to the surface, and small white flowers unfold just above the water surface.
