Want a SUPER Fast Grower?
Enter Red Root Floaters! (Phyllanthus Fluitans)
Like Most floating plants.... Red Root floaters grow like CRAZY. (Floating plants get MORE light than regular plants and because they are ABOVE the water line get WAY more CO2...ala Super fast growth) How fast do red root floaters grow? They grow so fast USDA did a study and found them able to grow in the wild in south Florida.
So yes- this is an EASY PLANT.
10-15 leaves is a portions. Portion size is the first photo with the ruler.
These are RED PLANTS for us as we use this thing called the sun. Under lower light conditions these plants will turn a more green look. The RED comes with high light.
NO CO2 so special anything needed BUT LIGHT.
NOTE: We do our best not to ship this with any other pest plants but you might get a piece of Azolla accidentally in with it. LOOK OVER your plants before you put them in your tank.
THIS IS A STEAL for only $12.95. Buy them ONCE and soon you'll be passing them out to your friends with over flow!
Customer Reviews
I dont know if it was due to shipping or what but a lot of the red root floaters were rotted and green, falling apart. I only have like maybe 10 left out the whole bundle & maybe not even that. I think they probably would have been better in full sun and maybe a bigger area idk. Damage was already done so not a lot a could do. I would switch them for frog bit or spangles next time. Everything else was completely amazing. If they looked like pictured then yea I would have been thrilled but its a no for me next time. But I would still order again and again and again cause everything else was amazing!!!
Doing good...they look so nice...my betta Rainbow loves to swim among the floaters. I rinsed them thoroughly and hoping no snails!
Got several plants in my order. They were putting on new growth within a week.
Great little plant. Placed them in a bucket for a couple of days, before introducing them into the tank. They are already starting to sprout.
Plant is completely GREEN. Definitely not a “red root floater”. Order placed 8/28/25 not received until 9/5/25.
