Common name: Flowering Plants

Magnoliopsida is the class commonly referred to as the flowering plants or dicotyledons. This group is characterized by having two embryonic seed leaves or cotyledons. In the context of reefkeeping, members of this class are not typically found, as they are predominantly terrestrial. However, some hobbyists may explore mangroves, which are part of this class and can be incorporated into reef tanks to add a unique aesthetic and assist with nutrient export.
