🌿 Corkscrew Val – Twisting Midground Accent for Natural Aquariums
Corkscrew Val (Valisneria tortifolia) is a beautiful mid-height variety of Valisneria, known for its spiral-twisted leaves that add natural texture and motion to your aquascape. Unlike the towering Jungle Val, Corkscrew Val stays shorter, making it ideal for midground or background planting in small to medium tanks.
Fast-growing and self-propagating by runners, it’s perfect for Father Fish tanks — no CO₂, no fertilizers, just soil and light.
