🌿 Mini Pellia (Riccardia chamedryfolia) – Compact Liverwort Moss for Aquascaping & Nano Tanks

Mini Pellia, also known as Riccardia chamedryfolia, is a rare and highly decorative liverwort that's perfect for creating lush, compact greenery in aquascapes. With its dense, coral-like texture and deep green coloration, it’s an excellent choice for nano tanks, shrimp habitats, and intricate aquascaping designs.
