Care & Aquascaping Tips
- Thrives under medium to strong lighting and nutrient-rich water; floating mats form rapidly.
- No CO₂ required; absorbs nutrients directly, making it easy to care for.
- Temperature range ideal is 22–28 °C; pH 6.0–7.5; while tolerant of water hardness.
- Prune runners and plantlets regularly to control growth and prevent excessive surface shading.
- Floating roots offer habitat and filtration; ideal for fry, shrimp, and as spawning mops.
Planting & Propagation Recommendations
- Simply place on the water surface—no substrate required; nutrient uptake occurs through leaves and roots.
- Propagates naturally by runner segments; trim and relocate plantlets to manage coverage.
- Use in groups to create shaded zones and texture; ideal for community tanks and biotope setups.
