Are there red root floaters that also have interesting tops and not looking just like frogbit from the top? I like the cuculatta and minima leaves, would be great to have consistent red roots. I got some Salvinia minima from mayphly with beautiful red roots but as he said, they only get that way in the high light he runs and my new leaves have been growing with normal pale green roots. Still pretty but slightly disappointing.

Do these develop red roots (maybe under high light)?

I haven't seen any red roots coming out from mine.  I like the Cucullata, cuz they look like little cup shape, it's so unique

What kind of lighting does this plant need? I have a full spectrum 15 watt 8,000k t8 on my 10 gallon tank.

I end up noticed that this plant doesn't need lot of light, less light will show nicer cup shape leaves.

Would this do well in a TB tank with low PH? This is beautiful. How long are the floater roots?

Do they ship well? I have a 3G JBJ Picotope. I'm thinking I'd like some in this tank because it's a sparse tank. I've been cycling it for 3 weeks now. Here's my set up. Would this work well?

This plant doesn't need high light. Therefore, I guess it's fine. Where are u locate at? Usually I have no problem with plant melting during shipping

I got some for my 3g marineland a while back. It looks nice and came in healthy.

I just got them today and put them in the tank! So tiny and pretty. I had to order a filter splash guard for them because they keep want to go to the spill over. For now, I draped some airline tubing to keep them away. So far it is working. I tried to dry the leaves on the ones that took a spill over tumble under water. I hope they do alright. Very pretty! Thanks! Just what the tank needed for balance.

I bought some Salvinia Cucullata around a week and a half ago and they are looking great, I'm hoping to replace most of my duckweed with them cause I'm hoping they will grow slower and they also look much nicer. Thanks a lot Green! Also duckweed for scale.
