Water sprite is an easy-to-grow, aquatic fern with dense foliage that provides excellent shelter for small fish and fry. It can be grown traditionally planted into substrate or used as a floating plant. Water sprite grows fairly quickly when given plenty of nutrients under low to medium lighting. It is often confused with water wisteria because of their complex leaf texture and bright green color. However, water sprite has a more thin, lace-like leaf structure, whereas the leaves of water wisteria are a little more broad and sturdy.
Excellent Cover for Small Fish & Shrimp
Water sprite can be grown traditionally planted into substrate or used as a floating plant. Its dense foliage provides excellent shelter for small fish, fry, and shrimp. Give it plenty of light and nutrients for fast and healthy growth.
Plant Transition
Most aquatic plants are grown out of water at the farms. At our warehouse, we start the plant's transition so they can begin growing underwater leaves for you. Leaves grown out of water often have rounded lobes or very small needles, whereas leaves grown under water have a dense, lace-like structure. This is a normal process, and it's your choice cut off the fading, older leaves or leave them.
We Include Heat Packs and Liners Free of Charge
We have a custom-developed algorithm to include heat packs and insulating plant liners as needed, based on the weather forecast from our warehouse to your shipping address. This helps keep plants at stable temperatures, both in hot and cold weather. Other vendors typically charge you at checkout for a heat pack. We include them when needed free of charge because it's our job to deliver our plants to your door healthy.
I ordered 2x water Sprite and 2x Anubis from Aquarium co-op. I was so amazed when they came. The packing was super nice and none of my plants got damaged. They are healthy. I am very impressed with the quality of the plants and shipping. Will order more from Aquarium co-op in the future.

Great Plants and Packaging!
These plants were shipped wonderfully. I have been having issues with UPS not leaving packages at my door so unfortunately my plants sat in subzero temperatures over the weekend (no fault of Co-Op). The only way they survived was the packaging and they are thriving now. Thank you!

Arrived healthy
Though this plant arrived healthy, it was a lot smaller than advertised in photos. It was purchased for my newly acquired, juvenal cherry barbs.
Has been in my 29 gallon aquarium for a few weeks now and it is still healthy and starting to show some growth.
My hope is that it will continue to grow and my fish will enjoy them.

Beautiful Plants!
Came in healthy, and bigger than I thought! Really pretty. They're adjusting to my tank, but once they get going, they'll be beautiful!!

I recieved a nice, big healthy plant and I haven't killed it (yet). I'm floating it in my betta tank and Captain America seems to like the shade!
