๐ฟ Bolbitis heudeloti โ Rare Rhizome Fern for Natural Aquariums
Bolbitis heudelotiย is a delicate and rare aquatic fern with soft, slightly lobed leaves that bring subtle movement and texture to your natural aquascape. Unlike the more common Java Fern, Bolbitis has a finer, more lace-like appearance โ perfect for shaded areas, driftwood placements, and shrimp tanks.
Naturally slow-growing and sensitive to disturbance, this plant does best when tied to hardscape and left alone to establish. It thrives in deep substrate tanks without COโ, fertilizers, or chemicals โ fully in line with the Father Fish method.
