Care & Aquascaping Tips

  • Thrives under medium to high light; leaves spread horizontally to form a fan-like structure :contentReference[oaicite:1]{index=1}.
  • CO₂ improves growth speed and foliage saturation, but it’s not essential :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}.
  • Prefers nutrient-rich substrate and regular dosing of key macronutrients for optimal lushness :contentReference[oaicite:3]{index=3}.
  • Trim tops (cut ~5 cm) to encourage branching and maintain density; replant cut tips for propagation :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}.
  • Water parameters: 22–28 °C; pH 6.0–7.5; moderate current for natural movement :contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}.

Planting & Propagation Recommendations

  • Group stems in bunches (~5) spaced 3–4 cm apart; angling stems toward the back glass provides depth.
  • Ensure secure anchoring in substrate; cut and replant top shoots for continuous growth and propagation.
  • Combines beautifully with fine-leaf foreground carpets and bold background accents for layered aquascapes.
