Italian Val (Vallisneria spiralis) is a resilient and widely favored aquarium plant, known for its straight, vibrant green leaves and its unique spiraled white flower that may emerge above the water. Despite being one of the hardiest species within the Vallisneria genus, this plant can thrive in a broad range of water conditions, including slightly brackish environments, with a preferred pH range of 6.5 to 7.6 and a temperature range of 64° to 82°F (18° to 28°C). Italian Val is especially suitable for larger tanks, where its tall growth offers excellent cover and refuge for small fish and fry. Its fast-growing nature and ease of propagation quickly establish a lush, green background, enhancing the tank's aesthetic. Found in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide, Vallisneria spiralis prefers moderate to high lighting and benefits from a nutrient-rich substrate, though it is incredibly durable and requires minimal maintenance, making it an ideal choice for aquarists of all experience levels.
