Bolbitis heteroclita ‘difformis’, commonly known as Mini Bolbitis, is a compact aquatic fern with finely divided, bright green leaves. It is an excellent choice for nano aquariums, aquascapes, and shaded areas where a delicate fern texture is desired. Like other Bolbitis, it is best attached to rocks or driftwood rather than planted deeply into the substrate.
