- Growing Difficulty
- Intermediate
- Lifespan
- Perennial
- Size
- 3-15cm
- Watering
- Root tabs, CO2
- Lighting
- Needs bright lighting. With enough light and CO2 it forms a lawn-like carpet, while under low light it grows too tall.
- CO2 & Fertilizer
- CO2 injection greatly speeds up growth. Substrate fertiliser improves rooting and spread.
- Substrate & Attachment
- Easy to grow in soil, but it also does well in sandy substrates. Runners spread more readily in fine-grained sand.
- Grooming
- Trimming regularly increases density
- Cautions
- Adapts well to different water and is fairly hardy. It spreads sideways by runners, so partition off areas where you do not want it.
