Aponogetons are larger growing aquatic bulbs that Bettas just love!

Aponogeton Longiplumulosus adds great contrasting texture with long ruffled, strap- shaped leaves.While suitable for larger tanks (20 Tall would be excellent!), I have kept these in smaller tanks by removing older, larger leaves as new ones grow each week.

This variety grows frilled long leaves that many fish appreciate for the shade and resting areas it provides.

They won’t need anything special in terms of lighting, filtration, but they will benefit from a nutrient dense soil. Supplement with root tabs for the best result!

Aponogeton bulbs should only be buried about halfway, as any more than that could cause rot. They produce fuzzy white flower stalks that sprout up beyond the water’s surface!

Your bulb may or may not have sprouting leaves! Just drop your Apono in and observe it for a week or two. If you don’t see new growth sprouting, drop me a message!

One ~1″ bulb. We try to send it sprouting so it’s not a dud!

Growing requirements:

• 65-80 Degrees Fahrenheit
• Ph 6-8
• Low to Medium light intensity.
• Heavy root feeder
• Mediumgrowth speed

As I like to keep real ecosystems in my aquariums, there’s always the possibility of harmless snail or dwarf shrimp hitchhikers!
