Description
Product Overview
The Ultimate Floating Plant Bundle by Shore Aquatic is a curated collection of three premium aquatic plants designed to transform any freshwater aquarium into a thriving, self‑sustaining ecosystem. This bundle includes a four‑ounce cup of duckweed (Lemna minor), a four‑ounce cup of red root floaters (Phyllanthus fluitans), and a four‑ounce cup of salvinia (Salvinia natans). Each plant is cultivated in a controlled environment to ensure optimal health, vibrant green coloration, and rapid growth. The plants are packaged in compact, resealable containers that protect the delicate fronds during shipping and make it easy to introduce them directly into the tank.
All three species are low‑maintenance, requiring only moderate water conditions and partial sunlight or a standard aquarium lamp. Duckweed acts as a natural bio‑filter, processing up to 40 gallons of water per hour, while red root floaters add a striking splash of color with their bright red roots. Salvinia provides a dense, mat‑like surface that helps reduce algae growth by shading the water and competing for nutrients. Together, they create a balanced micro‑habitat that supports fish health, improves water clarity, and enhances the visual appeal of the aquarium.
Usage
This floating plant bundle is ideal for both novice and experienced aquarium enthusiasts. It works perfectly in community tanks, planted tanks, and even small nano‑aquariums ranging from 5 to 30 gallons. Simply open the containers, rinse the plants with dechlorinated water, and gently place them on the water surface. The plants will spread naturally, forming a lush carpet that provides shelter for fry and reduces stress for adult fish.
Because the plants thrive in partial sun, they are also suitable for indoor water gardens, pond liners, and decorative water features. The bundle makes an excellent gift for birthdays, housewarmings, or holidays, offering a living, growing present that continues to give back to the owner through cleaner water and a more natural environment.

FAQ
How often should I replace the floating plants?
The plants will naturally reproduce and maintain their coverage. Replace only if you notice excessive decay or if you want to refresh the appearance after several months.
Can these plants survive in a tank with heated water?
Yes, all three species tolerate typical aquarium temperatures between 68°F and 82°F. Avoid extreme temperature fluctuations for best results.
Do I need to add any nutrients or fertilizers?
No additional fertilizers are required. The plants obtain nutrients from the water and fish waste, making them an efficient, self‑sustaining component of your ecosystem.
Are these plants safe for all fish species?
These floating plants are non‑toxic and safe for most community fish, including tetras, guppies, and bettas. They provide hiding spots for fry and help reduce stress for adult fish.
What lighting conditions are optimal?
Partial sunlight or a standard aquarium LED light (8‑10 hours per day) is sufficient. Too much direct sunlight can cause rapid overgrowth, so monitor and trim as needed.
