Root tabs help if using sand or inert substrates.
COâ‚‚ injection strongly recommended for compact, fast carpeting.
Regular liquid fertilizers boost lush growth.
Growth & Maintenance
Grows horizontally to form a thick carpet.
Trim regularly to prevent the bottom layers from rotting.
Propagation is simple – cut and replant stems to spread the carpet.
Placement in Aquascape
Best for foreground and midground carpeting.
Pairs well with stone layouts and contrasting tall background plants.
Perfect for Iwagumi and nature-style aquascapes.
Plant Format
Tissue culture plants are young aquatic plants that are developed in-vitro in aquatic plant propagation laboratories. This unique cultivation ensures these plants are devoid of undesired snails, algae, and pesticides, making them completely safe for even the most delicate fish and shrimp species.
We offer a diverse range of tissue cultured aquarium plant varieties. Our cultures provide substantial planting portions, and when combined with high-quality fertilizers and COâ‚‚ injection will grow into healthy aquatic plants.
Just lower the root portion of the tissue culture's clump that needs to be planted directly into the soil until it is buried halfway into the aquatic soil.
