Floating live aquatic loose plants Limnobium laevigatum also known as Amazon Frogbit by Aquatic Farmer

Limnobium laevigatum is a decorative floating plant that is suitable for open aquariums.

Loose Plants sold in container with dimension: ~10cm diameter by 5cm height.

Size wise, it can grow 1-5 cm tall and leaves from 5-15 cm wide.

Limnobium laevigatum is rather undemanding and grows fast. Its round smooth leaves look attractive in open tanks, the long roots add a very natural, primitive feel to the aquarium.

Limnobium laevigatum is especially suitable for fish and shrimp breeding tanks, as it removes surplus nutrients from the water very efficiently. Its fine, long and decorative roots provide protection to surface fishes that like the roots of floating plants.

The plant can be used as an indicator of nutrients levels in the water - If there are enough nutrients in the water and the light intensity is good, new leaves will appear above the water surface. When the nutrient level in the water decreases, it will grow much slower.

Note: May become necessary to remove some so as to provide sufficient light to other plants beneath it.
