VALLISNERIA AUSTRALIS GIGANTEA – EASY, FAST-GROWING AQUARIUM PLANT FOR LARGE TANKS
Vallisneria Australis Gigantea, also known as Vallisneria Americana Gigantea, is an aquarium plant native to Asia, ideal for large tanks due to its fast and robust growth. Its long leaves, ranging from 50 to 150 cm in height and about 2 cm in width, often float on the surface creating a natural, decorative effect. Regular pruning is necessary to prevent overshadowing smaller plants underneath. The leaves are tough and resilient, making the plant unappealing to herbivorous fish.
Vallisneria Australis Gigantea easily propagates via runners, especially in nutrient-rich substrates, enabling a dense green carpet to form on the aquarium floor.
