Product Description:

Ranunculus Inundatus, commonly known as Water Crowfoot, is an aquatic plant renowned for its delicate and frilly foliage, adding a touch of elegance to freshwater aquariums. Belonging to the buttercup family (Ranunculaceae), this species is recognized for its finely dissected leaves that create a feathery and intricate appearance underwater. The plant's bright green coloration and unique leaf structure make it a sought-after choice for aquascaping enthusiasts looking to introduce a graceful element to their aquatic landscapes.

Lighting: Ranunculus Inundatus thrives in medium to high lighting conditions. Adequate light is crucial for maintaining the plant's compact and lush growth.

CO2 and Nutrients: Supplementing carbon dioxide in the aquarium benefits the plant's growth. Additionally, providing a nutrient-rich substrate and a balanced fertilizer regimen supports the development of healthy frilly foliage.

Water Parameters: Maintain a temperature range of 59-77°F (15-25°C) and a slightly acidic to neutral pH between 6.5-7.5. Ranunculus Inundatus can adapt to various water hardness levels.

Planting: Plant the runners or divisions in the substrate, allowing them to spread and create a carpet-like effect. Due to its frilly and finely dissected leaves, Ranunculus Inundatus is often used as a foreground or midground plant in aquascapes.

Pruning: Regular pruning helps control the spread of the plant and prevents it from overshadowing other aquarium inhabitants. Trim any excessive growth and remove any discolored or damaged leaves to maintain a neat appearance.

Propagation: Ranunculus Inundatus can be propagated through runners or by dividing the plant. Once the plant has established a healthy root system, it will produce runners that can be replanted in the substrate.

Aquascape Compatibility: Ranunculus Inundatus adds a charming and graceful element to planted aquariums. Its intricate foliage creates a visually appealing contrast with other aquatic plants and provides a naturalistic feel to the aquascape.
