Entity overview
The profile uses floating growth behavior alongside midground/background placement tags.
For entity matching, taxonomy contributes genus Nymphaea, family Nymphaeaceae, order Nymphaeales, and major group Angiosperms.
For broader context and filtering, open the Aquarium Plant Library.
Water parameter context
Available aquarium parameters show temperature 15–30 °C, pH 5–8, KH 2–14 °dKH, and CO2 10–40 mg/L.
For this profile: Estimate CO2 balance.
Nutrient range context
Nutrient fields for the profile cover nitrate 10–50 mg/L, phosphate 0.1–3 mg/L, potassium 5–30 mg/L, and iron 0.01–0.5 mg/L.
Aquarium tool: Calculate nutrient dosing.
Care data interpretation
Planning data for care includes medium difficulty, medium light demand, and recommended CO2.
Emersed growth appears as a supported profile value.
