Bunch: 10 Weighted, Rootless Stems - 12-25 cm
Elodea Densa is an excellent choice for beginners and those who prefer low-maintenance aquatic plants. Its fast growth rate is influenced by lighting intensity and the availability of mineral nutrients in the water. If minerals are lacking, the plant will continue to grow but its leaves may turn light green or transparent, and new stems will be noticeably thinner.
Key Characteristics:
Self-cleaning properties: It helps purify water and suppresses harmful bacterial growth.
Water preferences: It thrives in clean water but reacts poorly to very soft water. In stagnant or old water with insufficient lighting, it may yellow and eventually die.
Temperature tolerance: Prefers cooler water (5 - 26°C), making it suitable for both aquariums and ponds.
