Water Sprite / Ceratopteris thalicroides (MEGA HARDY PLANT)

NOTE: The photos labeled "ABOVE WATER GROWN" shows what the plant looks like when you buy the ABOVE WATER GROWN version. This is great for ponds. Fish and fry love to hide in the bunches of this plant.  There will also be parts with brown and new leaves off the top of the brown above water converting growth. Water sprite (or Ceratopteris thalictroides if you want to get scientific) is a highly versatile plant.(often confused with Water Wisteria) You can keep it floating at the top of your tank. Just throw it in. When floated, water sprite will quickly multiply once established. I grew it like this in my 125 under high light and CO2 and it grew like crazy. I had runners all over the place... This is an EXTREMELY HARDY PLANT. It can handle the abuse of a beginner but also reward someone who is more advanced. It likes slightly higher calcium content. (Don't over think this unless you have like discus low ph water)    It has a strong sturdy stem structure and will handle the abuse of rowd
