📍Placement
Attach to hardscape only. Burying the rhizome causes crown rot and the plant will die.
📝Care notes
Nearly indestructible. Ideal in cichlid tanks where plants get eaten. Place in shaded areas to prevent algae growing on the slow growing leaves.
🧪Fertilisation
Root tabs every 3 months
⏰Schedule
Push one root tab under the rhizome every 3 months. No liquid dosing needed at all.
✂️Propagation
Cut the rhizome into sections ensuring each piece has at least 2 to 3 leaves and some roots attached.
