Aquatic plants play a very important part in the environment as they can provide food, serve as water purifiers and also act as shelter to aquatic animals. The Anacharis plant serves various purposes in an aquarium setting. It is a hardy plant that readily adapts to a diverse range of water conditions.

How do you use Anacharis in aquarium?

Simply place each individual stem into aquarium gravel or nutrient rich substrate about two inches deep and about an inch or more apart. Planting Anacharis stems too shallow will result in floating stems, and planting stems too close together will not provide room for growth.

Can I put Anacharis in a pond?

The easiest way to grow anacharis is to drop them onto the surface of your pond or aquarium. Alternatively, anacharis can survive planting depths up to 4m (13ft). To plant underwater, remove the bottom 2.5cm (1in) of leaves and tuck the plant into the bottom sediment.
