Ceratopteris Thalictroides, more commonly known as Water Sprite, is a fast-growing aquarium stem plant with bright green, decorative foliage. Loved by beginner hobbyists, Water Sprite is extremely easy to keep in a planted aquarium and offers an undemanding nature along with quick growth. Its wide growth is good for filling in empty space in a planted aquarium tank. Much like other classic easy aquarium plants, Ceratopsis Thalictroides does not require too much care and can adapt to a wide range of aquarium tank parameters. Water Sprite also helps in absorbing excess nutrients from the water column, helping to outcompete algae, preventing its growth and promoting a cleaner water column for aquarium tank inhabitants.
As Water Sprite grows quickly, it has the potential to grow unruly if not maintained and pruned regularly. We recommend this aquarium plant for the midground and background aquatic plant choices in a planted tank. It is suitable for the larger spectrum of nano aquarium tanks to larger standard sizes. Propagation is simple and trimmed stems can be replanted into quality aquarium soil.
