Shrimp Tank Floater Kit - Red Root Floater & Salvinia (4 Ounce, 2 Pack)

Shrimp Tank Floater Kit - Red Root Floater & Salvinia Live Floating Plants for Freshwater Shrimp Aquariums This specially curated Shrimp Tank Floater Kit pairs two of the most popular floating plants for freshwater shrimp tanks: Red Root Floater (Phyllanthus fluitans) and Salvinia (Salvinia minima). Together, these plants provide essential surface cover, natural shade, and biofilm grazing surfaces that shrimp thrive on. Each kit includes one 4 oz portion cup of Red Root Floaters and one 4 oz portion cup of Salvinia - enough to quickly establish a lush floating canopy in tanks up to 20 gallons. Why This Kit Works for Shrimp Red Root Floaters produce long, flowing red roots that serve as natural grazing surfaces for shrimp and fry. The Salvinia complements with dense, textured floating coverage that absorbs excess nutrients, reduces light stress, and helps maintain stable water parameters. Together, they create a layered floating ecosystem that keeps your shrimp happy, healthy, and active. Key Features Dual-Species Kit Two distinct floating plants for maximum surface variety and coverage. Shrimp-Friendly Root Structure Long dangling roots offer biofilm and microorganism grazing areas for shrimp and fry. Nutrient Absorption Both species efficiently absorb nitrates and phosphates, helping reduce algae growth. Easy Floating Setup No planting, substrate, or CO₂ required - simply float on the water surface. Care Instructions Lighting Moderate to high lighting encourages compact growth and vibrant Red Root Floater coloration. Water Conditions • Temperature: 68-82°F (20-28°C) • pH Range: 6.0-7.5 • Gentle surface flow preferred - avoid strong current that pushes floaters underwater Maintenance Thin regularly to prevent excessive surface coverage and allow light to reach plants below. Both species propagate quickly under good conditions.
