About This
- El Niño Fern adds lacy green texture and soft motion to planted tanks, making it ideal for natural midground to background placement with shaded or forested layouts.
- This slow-growing rhizome thrives when attached to driftwood or stone and is favored by aquascapers for its ease of care, structure, and compatibility with shrimp tanks.
- Ships potted for convenience—remove and mount to wood or rock using thread or glue. Do not bury the rhizome, as this will cause rot and damage the plant over time.
- Care Requirements – Thrives in Low to Medium Light; 6–8 hrs/day – CO₂ optional but helps optimize growth. Propagation is simple via rhizome division or trimming.
- SubstrateSource inspects each plant prior to shipping and ships all plants in healthy, stable condition with proper packing materials to ensure its safe arrival during shipping. Each plant is backed with a 100% dead-on-arrival replacement guarantee. To qualify, customers must provide a photo of the DOA plant within 24 hours of delivery.
