A philodendron-style bush, 45-50cm tall and 450g — and unlike the other XL pieces, this one is as wide as it is tall. It is the bushiest plant in the Amazon Jungle range: a single specimen fills a corner completely.
Plan for the spread, not just the height. In a 2-foot tank it takes up most of one end. It comes into its own in a paludarium or planted terrarium where there is room for the canopy to open out.
Features
- 45-50cm, 450g — XL scale with a wide canopy
- Full bush habit — the densest piece in the range
- Broad philodendron-style leaves — heavy shade for shy species
- Aquarium or terrarium — designed to work either side of the waterline
- No maintenance — no lighting, CO2, fertiliser or trimming, and herbivorous fish will not eat it
Care
Rinse under warm running water before it goes in the tank. Every few months, lift it out and swish it in a bucket of old tank water to shift the algae film that settles on any decor — never use soap or detergent.
Worth knowing
Artificial plants do not take up nitrate or oxygenate the water the way live plants do. They are for structure, cover and looks — your filter and water changes still do the work.
