     "I received my plant packaged nicely and arrived healthy. It’s been in my tank for a week and has already grown so much! I love the way some leaves float to the top of my tank. Thank you!"

     Brazilian Pennywort is an upright grower that propagates through runners and branches. Quick growing and elegant, it is a haven for tiny fish and baby shrimp! This potted variety of "Hydrocotyle leucocephala" is excellent for bare-bottomed tanks!

    Pennywort has the added advantage of being a bog type plant. Meaning, it will grow and grow towards your light source until it grows right out of the water! It will eventually just drape out the side of your tank, adding layers of stunning, dimensional foliage.

     Rooted, potted Pennywort is 6-10" tall.

    EMERGENT-GROWN OR SUBMERGED-GROWN

    Growing Suggestions:

    • Medium light needs
    • Low tech, unheated aquarium, 60-80F
    • Fast upright growth rate
    • Root tabs recommended: Nope
    • Elegant shape and shelter!

    As I like to keep real ecosystems in my aquariums, there's always the possibility of harmless snail or dwarf shrimp hitchhikers!

    Care Guide

    From Tropicflow with Love - Treat your Fish with Knowledge

    Moving into a new aquarium tank (home) can be a shock for any creature, but for fish, it is particularly stressful. Not only will a new aquarium tank be completely unfamiliar for your new fish, but the water will likely be of a different quality. Subtle changes in water temperature, pH, quality of water, and other factors make a huge difference in your fish’s life. To keep your fish safe and healthy, there are certain measures you should take step-by-step when introducing fish to a new aquarium tank. Here is a process of how to make an easy aquarium to introduce a new fish:

    Precautions

    • Talk to an expert at the fish store or to a veterinarian to make sure the aquarium fish species you are adding will be compatible with your existing aquarium fish species.
    • Make sure the fish you are adding to your aquarium tank are the proper size for their new environment. Research the species and make sure it won’t grow too large for your tank.
    • Test your water quality before adding your new fish. Your chlorine level should be at zero, and your pH should match a new fish environment. 
    • Make sure your tank has plenty of places for a fish to hide. Objects, plants, and rocks provide great cover so that your fish will be less stressed.
    • Feed the fish in your aquarium before adding any new fish. This will make the existing fish less aggressive.
    • Before adding your new fish, turn your aquarium lights off. You may want to dim the lights in the room as well. This will create a less stressful environment.
    • Don't be surprised if your new fish is not happy and excited, they just traveled for a long trip to a new home, give them some time.

    Adding the Fish

    When you are ready to add your fish to the aquarium, you should follow these steps:

    • Take the sealed bag that your fish came in and float it on the surface of your aquarium’s water.
    • Allow the bag to sit for 10-20 minutes, then open the bag and add a cup of your aquarium’s water to it. Reseal the bag and let it float again for another 10 minutes. Slowly add your aquarium's water to it, the key is patience.
    • Repeat the previous step until the bag is full. Then, you can use a net to transfer the fish from the bag into the tank. Make sure not to pour any water from the bag into the tank.
    • During the transport, the fish may be shy, heavy breathing, color-changing, swim on the bottom, or hiding. It's will be back to normal after 1-2 days, don't be panic

    After this, your fish is free to swim around and explore his new surroundings. Leave the lights off for a few hours as your fish adjusts, and make sure to look out for any signs of aggression in your fish population. And don't feed a new fish for the first 12-24 hours.
