- Watering
- Root tabs, CO2
- Lighting
- Needs fairly bright lighting. With enough light a healthy plant turns deep green, and its distinctive leaf shape stands out in the fore- to midground.
- CO2 & Fertilizer
- CO2 injection improves colour and growth. Rely mainly on substrate fertilizer; it grows strongly in a nutrient-rich substrate.
- Water Temperature & Quality
- Slightly acidic to neutral water is best. It is somewhat sensitive to water changes, so avoid abrupt shifts and prioritize stability.
- Substrate & Attachment
- It pairs well with aquarium soil and roots well in nutrient-rich soil. Place the plants in the fore- to midground.
- Trimming & Propagation
- Growth is somewhat slow but the plant spreads steadily. Divide the offshoots from the base and replant them to propagate.
