Care & Aquascaping Tips

• Requires medium to bright lighting; stronger light keeps leaves compact and upright.
• CO₂ supplementation enhances growth and maintains healthy foliage.
• Nutritive substrate or root tabs help sustain vibrant green hues.
• Stable parameters (22–28 °C, pH 6.0–7.5) with gentle water flow protect delicate leaves.
• Trim regularly to encourage branching and maintain shape.

Planting & Propagation Recommendations

• Plant stems in clusters of 3–5, spacing them 2–3 cm apart for a full appearance.
• Use tweezers to plant stems deeply (2–3 cm) to ensure strong rooting.
• Once established, trim tops and replant cuttings to create denser midground stands.
• Pair with rounded foreground carpets for visual contrast in texture and form.
