Elocharis parvula – GA- CEL1

Elocharis parvula – GA- CEL1  is one of the carpeting species and is the most prevalent subcategory of aquatic plants in the vivarium niche.

The Poaceae family, usually referred to as the grass family, includes several of these species. Dwarf Hairgrass, one of the many kinds, is currently quite popular.

Elocharis parvula looks almost exactly like lawn grass. It has strands or blades rather than typical grass leaves.

Each blade is tiny, resembles a strand of hair, and performs photosynthesis. The blades are densely packed despite being so thin.

This enables the plant to develop its well-known bright and luxuriant carpet-like appearance.

Due to its look, it is typically planted as a carpeting plant. But the advantages it provides for the ecosystem also make this fauna highly sought-after.

It oxygenates the water and aids in toxin removal and nitrate level management. Additionally, little critters can use this aquatic grass as a wonderful cover or hiding place.

Care Tips

• It requires good water flow and a debris-free aquarium environment
• The water temperature should be between 50° and 85°F.
