Description:
High-quality aquatic plant seeds designed to create a lush green carpet in freshwater aquariums. These seeds produce fast-growing, low-profile aquatic plants that enhance the beauty of your tank, improve water quality, and provide shelter for small aquatic creatures. No soaking required before planting.
How to Plant (No Soaking Needed):
- Prepare the Substrate:
- Add a 2–3 cm layer of fine sand or nutrient-rich aquarium soil to the bottom of your tank.
- Moisten the Surface:
- Gently mist the substrate with dechlorinated water until it’s fully moist but not submerged.
- Spread the Seeds:
- Evenly scatter the seeds across the moist surface. Do not cover them with soil.
- Cover and Maintain Humidity:
- Cover the tank with a transparent lid or plastic wrap to retain moisture. Keep it partially open for airflow.
- Provide Light & Warmth:
- Use a grow light or LED aquarium light for 8–12 hours a day. Maintain a temperature of 24–26°C (75–79°F).
- Mist Daily:
- Keep the surface moist by misting with water twice daily. Avoid letting the seeds dry out.
- Flooding the Tank:
- Once sprouts reach about 1 cm, slowly fill the tank with water. Pour carefully to avoid disturbing the new plants.
- Resume Normal Setup:
- Turn on the filter and heater. Avoid strong water currents for the first few days after flooding.
