Having oxygenating plants like Scirpus Cernuus, or Fibre Optic Plant in your pond is a very good thing because fish and bacteria use up oxygen continually through respiration, and need oxygen to survive. Many oxygenating pond plants are also suitable and beneficial for cold-water aquarium setups.
Scirpus Cernuus, Fibre Optic Plant is an attractive evergreen which has an apt common name. The glossy thread-like leaves have minute white flower spikes on the tips of each leaf. Evergreen. Trim in early spring to encourage new growth.
Only leaves that photosynthesize below the water surface can oxygenate a pond. The best oxygenators are plants whose leaves grow underwater. They also remove nitrates, which helps to reduce algae and keep the pond water clear, meaning once established, many may be grown much deeper if sunlight can reach them.
What are Oxygenating Pond Plants?
A fast growing pond plant like Scirpus Cernuus - Fibre Optic Plant will tend to release more oxygen through photosynthesis then it uses up during its own respiration, hence being given the name oxygenating plant. Many are fully submersible, but all species of oxygenator plant will have some fast leaf growth under the water. Oxygenating pond plants are a haven for many types of wildlife to shelter and breed.
