Red Root Floaters, scientifically known as Phyllanthus Fluitans, are prized for open aquariums, featuring slender stems and distinctively hairy, centrally arched floating leaves. Red Root Floaters have reddish roots that draw nutrients directly from the water, though they require careful maintenance, demanding specific lighting and water conditions along with additional fertilizer for optimal growth. Despite their water-repellent leaves, Red Root Floaters are sensitive to dripping water, thriving best in open tanks with no lids. Enhanced lighting intensifies their red hue and accelerates growth, but they require harder water as light increases. Successful cultivation may yield rare white flowers and green fruits, rewarding enthusiasts. Red Root Floaters care includes, maintaining constant high humidity, low-flow water and regular fertilizationwith trace elements sustains their robust growth, ensuring their vitality in aquarium settings.

Good quality and I would recommend it
They were also in terrible shape but i didn’t take pictures so I have no proof but they were all dead within 24 hours
Great floating plants, sent a generous amount of them. The only floating plant I've managed to keep alive.
Great growing fast
They came to me in great condition and healthy. I split them up between my 3 tanks. They didn't do so good. I had my filters on low flow with diy floating plant corral so they'd have no agitation too. I do still have a couple in my 10g that seem to be doing ok with some duckweed friends. So hoping for the best. They are beautiful plants tho!
