Egeria densa - Family ... Hydrocharitaceae

from: £3.25 · scroll down to shop

Egeria densa is a good plant for beginners, and its rapid growth helps create a balance in the aquarium from the start. It can also help prevent algae because it absorbs a great number of nutrients from the water. The plant secretes antibiotic substances which can help prevent blue-green algae (a type of bacteria). The growth rate depends largely on the amount of light and nutrition available. Growth does not stop in unfavourable conditions, but the plant turns light in colour and the tendrils grow thin.

These plant are recognised as some of the most beautiful and robust aquarium plant on the market. Over 150 different varieties are normally available for freshly harvested delivery.
