Simple, Varied Planting Options Red Mangroves arrive quickly take root insandor mud. Theyre also perfectly happy growing ingravel, live rock or water with no substrate at all. Just make sure that leaves are above the water, and the root system stays moist. Tolerance to Several Degrees of Salinity Red Mangroves can thrive in fresh, brackish, or full seawater (although they cannot be moved freely between water of varying salinity). This adaptability is possible because the plant conserves fresh water by excreting salt through its leaves. Affinity for Bright Light and Warmth Red Mangroves thrive undercorrect lighting, or even placement next to a large, bright window.
