Aqua One Silk Aquarium Plant, XL 40 cm – Amazon Red/Green

Aqua One Silk Plants create a natural-looking planted aquarium without the upkeep of live plants. This 40 cm Amazon-style plant has broad, soft silk leaves on a weighted base, giving fish shelter and helping to hide filters, heaters and pipework. It suits coldwater, tropical and marine aquariums and comes in red or red and green.

Key features of the Aqua One Silk Aquarium Plant

• Soft silk leaves
• 40 cm tall
• Shelter for fish
• Hides equipment
• Fresh or marine

Placing it in your tank

At 40 cm, this plant works best towards the back of tanks tall enough to keep the leaves below the waterline, so check your water depth first. Amazon Red gives a bold splash of colour, while Red/Green offers a softer, more natural mix that blends with other greenery. Soft silk leaves are kinder than rigid plastic to long-finned fish such as bettas and fancy goldfish. Grouping two or three plants, with shorter ones in front, builds a fuller, layered look.

Good to know

Rinse before use and push the base into the substrate or stand it on the gravel. Clean off algae with a soft brush or warm water when needed.
