Ecoscape Large Wide Liquorice Fern/eagle Fern Green

Description

Ecoscape Large Wide Liquorice Fern/eagle Fern Green — Broad two-fern artificial clump for filling space in larger tanks

Filling the back of a bigger aquarium one narrow plant at a time takes a lot of pieces, and the result can look like a row of separate stems rather than one planted bank. Ecoscape Large Wide Liquorice Fern/eagle Fern Green (SKU: 28262) is a Large Wide combination plant from Aqua One’s Ecoscape artificial range, combining two green fern styles, a liquorice fern and an eagle fern, in one spreading clump on a weighted base. As the name indicates, the Wide format is built to cover more width than a standard single-stem plant, so one piece does the work of several.

Aqua One does not publish a separate height for the Large Wide designs; standard Ecoscape Large plants are listed by Australian retailers at about 30 cm, which places this clump in the background or along the sides of tanks roughly 60 cm long and up. Two fern textures in the same green read as one natural stand, and the fronds give shy fish and fry plenty of cover. Aqua One describes Ecoscape plants as non-toxic and aquarium safe, needing no special lighting, pruning or supplements, safe with destructive fish such as cichlids, and easy to remove and clean. With nothing alive in it, it cannot decay, shed or bring in snails, and a wide clump like this hides heaters and filter intakes along the back glass. Its all-green colouring makes it an easy partner for driftwood, stone and live plants alike. The range is listed for coldwater, tropical and marine aquariums. Aqua One’s direction is to wash and rinse thoroughly in tap water before it goes in.

Usage & Application

When to Use

• Larger aquariums: One wide clump in place of several single plants.
• Background banks: A continuous wall of fern along the rear glass.
• Shelter for fish: Dense fronds for shy species, fry and stressed new arrivals.
• Cichlid tanks: Fern cover that rearranging fish cannot uproot.

Placement & Care Guide

• Rinse first: Wash thoroughly in tap water; no soap or detergent.
• Allow the width: Leave room either side so the fronds spread naturally.
• Anchor the base: Settle the weighted base into the substrate before filling.
• Clean as needed: Lift out and rinse algae off the fronds under running water.
