Care & Aquascaping Tips
- Thrives in medium lighting—too little light can slow leaf emergence.
- CO₂ is optional but supports upright growth and enhances health.
- Benefits from nutrient-rich substrate; root tabs or substrate dosing recommended.
- Grow best in stable conditions: 22–28 °C, pH 6.0–7.5; avoid frequent disturbance to reduce melt risk.
- Remove dead leaves at the base to allow fresh foliage to emerge.
Planting & Propagation Recommendations
- Plant the crown just above the substrate surface to prevent rot.
- Space 6–8 cm apart to accommodate mature rosette width.
- Propagate by dividing the rhizome or separating older offshoots during maintenance.
- Pair with softer-leaf foreground plants to accent its bold, wavy texture.
