Description
Mangrove Shoots
Mangrove Shoots (Rhizophora mangle) are saltwater plants that act as natural filters, absorbing excess nutrients and improving water quality. Native to coastal regions, they are ideal for refugiums or display tanks. Mangroves require bright lighting and regular trimming to prevent overgrowth. Their roots provide shelter for small fish and invertebrates, making them a valuable addition to marine setups.
