Trying to separate these strains out :). You never seem to know what the “pure” lines will through

It is too cold outside for the Koi and Plants, so time to start playing with the shrimp again. First few pictures are the SL-Aqua cycle for 2 new tanks. Looks nasty, but the shrimp love it :)

► 10 different plant types explained
💬 The right plants – the right plant products

Aquarium plants are available as different products. Please see the advantages of each product type here. The ordinary way to produce aquarium plants is in pots. We grow them in our greenhouses and they are easy to handle, even for beginners.

1️⃣ 1-2-Grow! in cups are young plants, directly from our laboratory. The plants are free from snails, algae and pesticides, which makes them completely safe for delicate shrimps and fish. Aquarists appreciate them for their compact growth and purity. These „baby plants” require more care in terms of added CO2 and fertiliser from the beginning, to get a proper start.

2️⃣ Pots are brimming with plants and have lots of mass and healthy, well-developed roots. Most pots can be divided into several portions or individual plants which are planted separately.

3️⃣A selection of our pots is pre-packed in breathable blister packaging to be sold as self-service plants.

4️⃣ We grow plants in XL pots in our greenhouses like plants in regular pots; they are fully grown when you buy them, which makes them very suitable for impatient aquarists!

5️⃣ Aqua Decor includes plants, planted on tree roots or lava rocks. Decor plants instantly make the aquarium look fully grown.

6️⃣ Mini is an improved and safe alternative to bunched/bundled plants, grown in our own nursery, rooted through channels in a ceramic anchor it's perfectly harmless for any sensitive shrimp or fish. They are packed and sold in breathable blisters.

7️⃣ Plant portions in blister packs include different types of moss, floating/surface plants, tubers and algae balls. Mosses are decorative, when placed on roots and rocks, or attached to a grid.

8️⃣ Floating plants add a decorative touch to an open aquarium surface, and they are also suitable as auxiliary plants.

9️⃣ Tubers are root balls of special, slow-growing plants like Nymphaea and Aponogeton for patient aquarists.

🔟 Plant bundles are mainly stem plants, delivered in bundles without roots. They are often used as fish feed and auxiliary plants (Egeria and Cabomba) when establishing the aquarium.

♻️ Please notice that bunches/bundled plants are currently NOT produced at Tropica's own nursery. We are unable to guarantee that they are free from harmful pesticides and thus we recommend NOT to put them directly in tanks with shrimps and other delicate fish.
