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.

Mini Pellia (Riccardia chamedryfolia) is a popular moss-like aquatic plant for planted tanks and aquascaping. Its compact, bushy growth and deep green color are an awesome alternative to standard aquarium moss. Like aquatic moss, it can be attached to driftwood, stone, or other hardscape and will eventually secure itself, providing a unique look.

Though a slow grower, Mini Pellia rewards patience with dense, cushion-like mats that offer beautiful texture in aquascapes. It’s one of our favorites, and we notice freshwater shrimp and fish enjoy it too! It is suitable for all aquarium sizes, from nano aquariums to larger planted tanks. This aquarium plant does best in moderate lighting and stable water parameters. For fluffier growth, provide it with CO₂ and watch it puff up! Few things beat a healthy patch of Mini Pellia!

Approximate size per portion is 3" x 3" attached to stainless steel.

Excellent Quality

"The mat was very well grown-in, thick, and without any bare patches. I removed the plant from the mat so I could glue it to hardscape elements in the paludarium. It has been growing very well since the transplant."

— Tyler H. (5/5)
