Slow to medium
📍Placement
Foreground to low midground. Creates compact bushy low growing mounds that spread outward slowly.
📝Care notes
Popular compact foreground plant with small bright green leaves. Easier than many carpeting plants as it does not need extremely high light. Creates a natural bushy effect that many aquascapers love.
🧪Fertilisation
Weekly macro and micro dosing
⏰Schedule
Weekly EI dosing. Additional iron supplementation helps maintain the bright green compact growth form.
✂️Propagation
Cut side shoots and plant them directly in the substrate. They root quickly with good light and CO2.
