Red Mangrove Seedlings for Aquarium, Reef, and Saltwater Tanks

The Red Mangroves (Rhizophora mangle) we offer are excellent for tank Nitrate filtration or landscaping purposes. These plants are capable of thriving in salt, brackish, and freshwater environments. Importantly, the propagules are grown privately and not harvested from public shorelines. We provide a two-month survival guarantee on the Mangroves.

The plants you will receive will have well-established roots with a minimum of two leaves and stand at least 12 inches tall, with most reaching around 14 inches in height. We ship the Mangroves within 24 hours of purchase, and shipping is free.

Regarding care instructions, the first step is to remove the plants from the shipping material. It is crucial to ensure the temperature of this tropical plant does not drop below 40 degrees. If placing the Mangroves in an aquarium, gently rinse them in room temperature fresh or tank water, but do not pack the roots down.

Provide the Mangroves with at least 12 hours of bright, daylight-spectrum light from a lamp or overhead light source per day. If the plant is in a saltwater setup, the leaves will need to be rinsed and cleaned daily. Failure to do so may result in the Mangrove dropping its leaves, as they need to dispose of the accumulated salt through their foliage.

For pot planting, cover the roots with soil and add fertilizer, ensuring the roots stay consistently moist. Mangroves require filtered light and do not tolerate full sun very well, thriving better in shaded conditions. If the plants are kept indoors, mist them once a week.

In summary, we are offering 20 Red Mangrove Seedlings (Rhizophora mangle) that are excellent for aquarium Nitrate filtration, as well as suitable for indoor/outdoor pot planting, aquariums, and hydroponic gardens. These Mangroves have established roots with at least two leaves and a minimum height of 10 inches, and they are privately grown, not harvested from public shorelines. We provide a two-month survival guarantee on these resilient and versatile plants.
