Bolbitis heteroclita Difformis

Bolbitis heteroclita 'Difformis' (Mini Bolbitis) is a unique and delicate aquatic fern known for its finely divided, lace-like leaves. This slow-growing epiphyte thrives when attached to driftwood or rocks, making it a popular choice for aquascaping. Unlike many other ferns, it prefers slightly cooler temperatures and soft, slightly acidic water for optimal growth. With its compact size and intricate foliage, Mini Bolbitis adds a touch of elegance to nano tanks and shaded areas of larger aquariums. Regular trimming and stable water parameters help maintain its health, while CO₂ supplementation and gentle water flow encourage lush growth.
