Care & Aquascaping Tips

  • Requires bright lighting (≥100 µmol PAR) and consistent CO₂ (20+ ppm) for rich coloration and compact form.
  • Deep-root in nutrient-rich substrate and supplement with iron, macro-, and micronutrients.
  • Maintain water: 22–28 °C, pH 6.0–7.5, stable parameters enhance growth.
  • Trim regularly by cutting tops above several nodes to encourage side shoots and fuller stems.
  • Ideal as a vibrant midground cluster or background filler; pairs beautifully with red-leaf accent plants.

Planting & Propagation Recommendations

  • Use tweezers to plant stems ~2–3 cm deep in substrate and space in small groups of 3–4 stems.
  • Replant trimmed tops to expand midground coverage or create denser arrangements.
  • Arrange in tiered clusters to showcase color transitions and enhance textural contrast.
  • Combine with softer-leaf foreground plants to highlight its fine structure.
