Create a dramatic, natural backdrop in your aquarium with Jungle Vallisneria, also known as Giant Vallisneria. This impressive background plant produces long, ribbon-like leaves that can reach the water’s surface and sway gently in the current, adding height, depth, and motion to large aquariums or tall tanks. Each bunch includes 2-3 healthy plants, ready to take root and grow into a stunning underwater forest.

Jungle Vallisneria is one of the hardiest and fastest-growing aquatic plants available. It thrives in a wide range of water conditions and lighting levels, making it perfect for beginners or seasoned aquascapers looking for bold vertical growth. Once established, it spreads by runners and helps maintain a healthy aquarium by oxygenating the water and absorbing excess nutrients.

Care Guidelines:

  • Lighting: Low to high

  • Placement: Background

  • Temperature: 68-82°F

  • pH Range: 6.5-8.0

  • Growth Rate: Fast

  • Propagation: Runners

Important Note:
It’s normal for Jungle Vallisneria to experience leaf melt when first introduced to a new tank. This temporary phase happens as the plant adjusts to your water parameters. Trim away any melted or soft leaves, new, stronger growth will quickly emerge from the base once acclimated.

Why Choose Jungle Vallisneria:

  • Adds dramatic height and lush greenery to aquariums

  • Provides shade and shelter for fish and shrimp

Includes: 2-3 individual Jungle Vallisneria plants per bunch. Plant directly into aquarium substrate, spacing each crown a few inches apart to allow room for runners to spread.
