Some people call it a Water Fern or Mosquito Fern, which is fine... but we think Fairy Moss is way cooler. We saw this plant a few years back and KNEW we had to get it on the site one day because it's one of the cutest floating plants we've ever seen!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAzolla Fairy Moss is a tiny floating plant that grows in little clusters across the surface of the water. Honestly, it kind of looks like tiny green snowflakes floating around your tank or pond! Under stronger lighting, Azolla can even develop pretty pink, orange, or reddish tones, which makes it even more fun!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis fast-growing floating plant does great in aquariums, ponds, summer tubs, shrimp tanks, and fry setups. It provides shade, surface cover, and cozy hiding spots for shy fish, baby fish, and shrimp. Like most floating plants, it does best with gentle water flow and doesn't love being pushed around by heavy surface agitation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAzolla Caroliniana is easy to care for and grows quickly once it settles in, so you may need to thin it out from time to time. It does best under medium to high lighting and thrives in a wide range of pH levels and temperatures, though it is not a big fan of cold water.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you want a floating plant that feels a little more unique than the usual options, Azolla Fairy Moss is such a fun pick!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features of Azolla Fairy Moss\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTiny floating plant with a fairy moss or snowflake appearance\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAlso known as Azolla Caroliniana, Fairy Moss, Mosquito Fern, or Water Fern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePerfect for aquariums, ponds, summer tubs, shrimp tanks, and fry setups\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProvides shade and cover for shy fish, fry, and shrimp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCan develop pink, orange, or red coloration under stronger lighting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFast-growing and beginner-friendly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePrefers gentle water flow with minimal surface agitation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMay arrive with small amounts of duckweed mixed in\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eCare Guide for Azolla Caroliniana\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eScientific Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eAzolla caroliniana\u003c\/em\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Names:\u003c\/strong\u003e Azolla Fairy Moss, Fairy Moss, Mosquito Fern, Water Fern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCare Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Easy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003epH:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.0-8.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight:\u003c\/strong\u003e Medium to High\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not Required\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Fast\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlacement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Floating Plant\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eNote: Please do additional research on your plant to ensure it thrives in your aquarium.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e*All plants may contain snails or snail eggs.
