Blyxa Aubertii, also known as Roundfruit Blyxa, is a versatile aquatic plant commonly found in rice paddies and streams. Though relatively rare in the planted tank hobby, it has gained popularity through trading. Easier to care for and hardier than its counterpart Blyxa Japonica, Blyxa Aubertii thrives with quality aquarium LED lighting, CO2 injection, nutrient-rich aquarium soil, and regular fertilization. Under optimal conditions, this plant can develop deep reddish hues, adding color and texture to your aquascape. Its fragile leaves require gentle handling, and propagation is simple by separating side shoots and replanting them in quality substrate. Ideal for freshwater aquariums looking to add a striking, low-maintenance plant.
