    Hornwort (Ceratophyllum demursum) is a floating  plant that does not put down roots, although it can be anchored down  into the substrate of the tank with weights. Not to be confused with the Hornwort that grows on land, the water variety grows widely across the  world in temperate regions including North America and the UK. Hornwort grows in long strands of up to two feet long, and has very  dark green leaves that look like fronds along the length of the plant. Hornwort is a very hard to kill plant and one of the few ones that withstand the abuse of fish like goldfish. After deciding whether you wish to attach them to the substrate or allow them to float freely within the  tank, they will pretty much take care of themselves. As the plants do not lay down roots, attaching them to the substrate  can be a challenge as they have a tendency to escape if not firmly  anchored or planted in a pot. Hornwort is tolerant of a wide range of temperature variations, and will thrive in a pH range of 6-7.5. They also do well with only moderate light, so will be equally happy in an illuminated tank or one that only received natural light. A general aquarium plant fertilizer and supplemental Co2 fertilizer  will really make your plants thrive but is not necessary. Hornwort continue to grow and  reproduce under the right circumstances, and will usually live for the  entire lifecycle of the tank. It reproduce by cuttins so you can create more plants by cutting a big one in several parts. It is a plant used for breeding fish cause it give the fry a place to hide from hungry parents or neighbors. Many fish use it also to lie their eggs.
    SHIPPING
    : No international shipping. I ship to every state including Puerto Rico. Hawaii and Alaska. I usually ship Monday-
    Thursday
    . If you buy your plants after
    Thursday
    10 am your plants will be ship next Monday. This is done cause usps does not delivers to many locations during the weekend and plants ship after Thursday 10 am have a
    higher
    chance
    of not being delivered by
    Friday
    and spend 2 extra days sitting in an usps warehouse, the more time they spend in the box the more they deteriorate
    PAYMENT:
    Only Paypal is accepted as a form of payment
    14 DAYS RETURN POLICY:
