Bolbitis Heteroclita is a versatile plant that can be used in Aquariums or Terrariums.
Terrarium use:
It is a fern suitable for being cultivated above water. Because even old leaves of this plant can keep the bright color, it gives a pleasant impression. It grows slowly on the surface of Terra Base, and the volume can be manageable. And because it doesn’t develop long rhizomes, it doesn’t spoil a layout.
Aquarium Use:
Bolbitis Heteroclita looks more like Java Fern in comparison to Bobltis Mini and Difformis. It’s a slow growing fern that can be grown submerged or emsersed. Like Java Ferns, Anubias and Buce, the rhizomes can be attached directly onto wood or rock. Larger plants can be propagated by dividing along the rhizome and replanting.
Notes:
- Bolbitis prefer to be placed in areas of an aquarium that experience higher flow rates.
- Do not make drastic changes to the aquarium. Unstable parameters will result in melt and rotting of the aquarium plant.
- Remove the cotton surrounding the roots and plant above a quality substrate.
- Burying the rhizome will cause the plant to die
- Plant is grown best attached to wood, rock, or sitting on top of substrate
- CO2 injection and quality aquarium soil will yield better growth.
- Please research appropriately to ensure your plant thrives.
