- Growing Difficulty
- Beginner-friendly
- Lifespan
- Perennial
- Size
- 20-100cm
- Watering
- None needed
- Lighting
- Tolerates a wide range of light and grows at any light level. Place it in the background where its fine leaves can sway in the current.
- CO2 & Fertilizer
- CO2 injection speeds growth but is not required. No fertilizer is needed; it grows on nutrients in the water.
- Substrate & Attachment
- Rootless species are grown floating or with the stems pushed into the sand. Hardy enough for goldfish tanks.
- Trimming & Propagation
- So vigorous that it regrows even from fragments. Cut overgrown stems and replant them to propagate easily.
- Notes
- Thin if overgrown. One of the hardiest aquatic plants
