Tropica Bolbitis heudelotii XL

Tropica Bolbitis heudelotii XL (Low Tech)

Tropica Bolbitis heudelotii XL also called Congolese water fern grows in habitats like those where Anubias are found. Its powerful rhizome covers stones and roots like a carpet along the banks of rivers and streams. Submersed fronds are dark green, transparent, and incredibly ornamental. Avoid strong light for this plant since it prefers shade. It also prefers fairly strong water movement, e.g., near a filter. A good CO2 supply will ensure lush growth. We highly recommend binding these plants to wood and roots.

Grown in a 9cm x 9cm pot

McMerwe’s Comment: A premium Plant. Please keep in mind that Tropica Bolbitis heudelotii XL can an be grown without co2, but it takes a very long time to transition and show new growth. Once it has transitioned its by far one of the best looking plants. Looks great in tanks of 100L or more. [Rating 5/5]
