Water Lettuce (Pistia stratiotes) is a popular floating plant with soft, velvety rosettes of light green leaves that resemble open heads of lettuce. Its long, feathery roots dangle beneath the surface, offering excellent shelter for fish, shrimp, and fry. Fast-growing under moderate to high light, it helps control algae by shading the water and absorbing excess nutrients. Best suited for open-top aquariums, ponds, or emersed setups, Water Lettuce thrives in calm water and warm conditions. Easy to propagate by producing small daughter plants, it’s both fish- and shrimp-safe, adding beauty and function to natural aquascapes.
