AquaPlants First Impressions
Gorgeous plants!
It's just not available in local pet shops. Seller even wrote a detailed page of instructions to care for the plants. Altlandsberg Sword, very beautiful plant. Some leaves came off but overall it is doing very well. Sprouted after 3 days in a Pyrex planted in existing aqurium substrate. The plants arrived in Hawaii from California within 48 hours and looked amazing. But over all really lovely plants extremely happy.

AquaPlants Final Thoughts
5 gallon betta tank.
It seems hit or miss but the second time around I am very satisfied. After that it seemed to grow right before my eyes. I divided it between three tanks and all three divisions are looking good. I absolutely love how this plant looks in my tank. I will definitely reorder in future. No roots yet, but still green and no evidence of dying. I did trim some of the plants back to remove old leaves so only new ones are left.

- AquaPlants Features & Specs
- You buy 10-15 small plants of Azolla filiculoides (Water Velvet) – Species Profile Azolla filiculoides (aka Water Velvet) is a miniscule floating plant.
- From a distance it can resemble Duckweed (Lemna minor), due to both having tiny leaves, but the plants are unrelated.
- In fact Azolla are more closely related to Salvinia. Both are floating, aquatic ferns. This fast growing plant will sprout daughter plants from the parent plant, creating mat-like layer of plant material on the water surface. Like Salvinia, its leaves have a fuzzy, velvety look to them. This comes from the many tiny, water repelling hairs that grow on the leaf surface. Unlike Salvinia, Water Velvet does not grow trailing roots.
