Aquatic Plants
READ ME: Our aquarium plants vary in growth forms and will require time to transition to submerged or emersed conditions. We do our best to clean and inspect all plants prior to shipping but do not guarantee them to be snail free unless tissue culture is purchased.
Tissue culture plants are cultivated in sterile lab settings ensuring your plant is free from pests, snails and algae! These are young specimen that are grown in emersed forms. Gel should always be removed prior to planting.
Live plants are susceptible to stress and damage from transit. - This may appear in the form of minimal melt, leaf loss, cosmetic damage, etc. Refunds or replacements will not be issued for plants with viable root systems or that die out of our care.

Hydrocotyle Tripartita, sometimes referred to as Hydrocotyle Tripartita Japan, is a commonly used aquarium plant species in the planted tank hobby. Made popular by the creator of aquascaping, Takashi Amano, Hydrocotyle Tripartita Japan is easily recognized by its clover-shaped foliage that has the potential to produce dense bushes or delicate vines throughout a planted aquarium tank. This aquarium plant's bright green hue and unique leaf shape makes it a great ornamental species that is commonly used in the midground or background area of the aquarium. Hydrocotyle Tripartita is typically undemanding, but sufficient lighting should be provided or growth tends to be leggy and sparse as the plant stretches towards the light source.
We recommend medium to high lighting, CO2 injection and a basic aquarium plant fertilizer to start. From there, tweaks may be made depending on the overall tank and goals. When well-established, Hydrocotyle Tripartita is a quick grower and will outpace many aquatic plant species making regular maintenance a must. Propagation is easy and can be done by snipping the plant anywhere along the stem and replanting it into quality, nutrient-dense aquarium soil.
