Water Sprite is also known by the names Water Fern and Indian Fern. This lovely plant is not as delicate as it looks; it is extremely low-maintenance and easy to grow, making it a great choice for beginner aquarium hobbyists. It does not need special or high intensity lighting, and it can be kept in any freshwater aquarium with adequate lighting. It grows rapidly under the right conditions and removes waste from the water in your tank.
Water Sprite can be planted in substrate or left to flourish as a floating fern - it's up to you! It is completely safe to keep with fish and most invertebrates, including shrimp and crayfish. However, you may want to watch out if you have snails in your aquarium, as many different species of snails have been known to snack on Water Sprite.
No aquarium plant distributor/nursery/wholesaler/retailer can or will guarantee their plants to be 100% snail free. We can not guarantee our plants will be snail free.
All Aquatic Arts brand plants and animals come with a 100% live arrival guarantee, plus free email support!
For the safety of our animals, we only ship live fish, crabs, and select other inverts exclusively via UPS 1 Day Air. If your order contains this item, you will only see UPS 1 Day Air as a shipping option during checkout. If other items are in your cart that can ship with 2 day or standard shipping options the only shipping method you can still select is UPS 1 Day Air.
UPS 1 Day is a description of the duration of time a shipment will spend in transit once it has been shipped. This does not guarantee the package will be shipped the same or next day from which the order was placed.
Shipping Schedule for this service
Current Handling Time:
1-9 business days
Here at Aquatic Arts, we consider the welfare of the live animals we are shipping to be of the foremost importance. This process is much more involved than simply creating a shipping label and affixing it to a box. Depending on the order, it takes from 4 to 7 people to complete this process properly. We check the weather conditions here where they fly out of the Indianapolis UPS facility and the destination for each shipment. We start early each morning and go through a multi-step process to have the day's shipments prepared in time for the UPS pickup. The volume of orders in our system also affects the processing time. Therefore our stated handling time is 1-9 business days.
Shipping Rate
Pricing is by size of package needed to fill entire order and distance it must travel. It will be calculated at checkout.
