Artificial aquarium plant Aqua Nova Aqua Natura 10 cm — green plastic water fern

The Aqua Nova Aqua Natura artificial aquarium plant is a 10 cm green plastic water fern intended for aquarium decoration. Made from durable plastic, this compact water fern reproduces the look of natural foliage while requiring minimal care. It serves as a fixed decorative element that adds visual interest, creates hiding spots for fish and invertebrates, and integrates easily with freshwater tanks, planted layouts, terrariums, and aquascapes where a natural appearance is desired.

Advantages

This artificial water fern does not require lighting, fertilizers, or trimming and remains visually consistent over time. Its plastic construction resists waterborne decay and algae-related deterioration typical of organic materials. The 10 cm height offers a subtle scale for foreground or midground placement in small to medium aquariums. Because it is maintenance-free, it is suitable for aquarists looking for stable décor that supports natural behavior by providing shelter without altering water chemistry.

Suitable for

• Freshwater community tanks and nano aquariums
• Planted-style layouts where additional visual texture is needed
• Terrariums and paludariums as non-living foliage accents
• Aquascapes requiring low-maintenance decorative plants

How to use

Place the artificial plant in the aquarium by anchoring its base in substrate or between rocks and décor to secure its position. Rinse under tap water before first use to remove any particulates from manufacturing and ensure it is free of residues. Position several units at different angles and depths to create a natural look and to provide varied shelter spaces for fish and invertebrates. Periodically remove the plant for a gentle rinse if surface algae accumulate.

Usage recommendations

Avoid placing the plastic fern directly against aquarium heaters or filters that produce high local temperatures. For best results combine with natural or artificial substrates and other décor to achieve a balanced aquascape. Clean using lukewarm water; do not use detergents or chemical cleaners that could introduce harmful residues.
