Optimum pH level conditions: The recommended pH range for Hydrocotyle verticillata is between 6 and 7.8 with water hardness dGH between 4 and 18. Ideal lighting conditions: One of the most important aspects of the optimum growth of this plant is lighting intensity. Hydrocotyle verticillata thrives when exposed to strong light. The height of this aquatic plant is inversely proportional to the lighting levels. While using in aquariums, strong lighting bulbs are highly recommended to facilitate its attractive shape as the lack of it will result in stretched scanty growth.= Advantages and functions: 1) Hydrocotyle verticillata has a plethora of medicinal benefits. Widely used in Chinese, Ayurvedic, alternative and folk medicine worldwide it is used to treat the common cold, hepatitis, influenza, typhoid, heal wounds and abscess, muscular dystrophy, etc. 2) It has antioxidant, antitumor, antiproliferative effects, which helps in treating liver problems.

Once you buy the tissue cultured plant, make sure to maintain water parameters within the prescribed range for its best growth. Light and other requirements: Hydrocotyle Tripartita "Honda" is an easy to grow plant. It doesn't have any high or peculiar demand. Instead, medium intensity light and medium carbon dioxide supply will fulfil its demand. You can occasionally provide fertilizers to the plant to get greener flora and dense growth. With the right parameters, Hydrocotyle Tripartita "Honda" attains good compact growth and reaches 5-10 cm in height. The intense green leaves on vertical stems look too good and compliment other aquarium plants as well. pH Requirements: The plant can thrive well under the pH requirements ranging between 5.5-8.0.

It is a perfect foreground plant that if given sufficient lighting and nutrients can grow into a thick carpet of green foliage. The leaves are small and round with a beautiful bright green coloration that can nicely offset any neutral toned substrate. High lighting and Co2 injection is necessary to keep this plant low growing. Vertical growing thin stalks are an indication of lack of lighting while yellowing leaves can mean nutrition deficiency. Thin leaves can also hint at a lack of Co2. This plant can grow quickly and require regular trimming when kept under proper conditions. This plant can grow submerged or emersed in dry start aquariums and Wabi Kusa. Because this plant is small with tiny roots, it can prove difficult to keep planted into the substrate. In this case, dry start can help by allowing time for the roots to anchor into the substrate before flooding the tank. Family Name: Phrymaceae Origin: New Zealand Height: 1-2” pH: 6-7.5 Care: Medium to Difficult Light: Medium to High Co2: Required Propagation: Cut new growth along with roots Growth rate: Moderate to Fast | Cryptocoryne Tropica is a form of the popular cryptocoryne, Crypt Wendtii. This popular Crypt will display long, green/orange/bronze crinkled leaves when grown submerged. Photos show difference between submerged and emersed grown plants. Like other Crypts, it grows at a moderate rate and can be grown both submerged and emerged. Care is simple for cryptocoryne and is comparable to other low-light aquatic plant species such as Anubias, Bucephalandra and more.
Crypts propagate through runners, which can be cut and replanted into the substrate if desired. For good coverage, plant individual stems about one inch apart. Water trumpets can also be planted in bunches as long as all the roots have exposure to nutrients from the substrate.
Notes:
| Echinodorus tenellus is a carpeting aquarium plant used by aquarists worldwide. Echinodorus tenellus has a striking resemblance to the Hairgrass plant but differs in the texture and size of the leaf. Also commonly called pygmy or dwarf chain grass, this fast-growing plant is native to regions of South, Central and North America. Highly recommended as a foreground and mid-ground plant due to it’s stunted growth, Echinodorus tenellus is easy to grow and has very little or no demands for optimum growth. With moderate levels of carbon dioxide, sunlight and a nutrient rich substrate, Echinodorus will grow in no time. In the natural habitat, this plant grows in submerged condition. Appearance: The leaves of Echinodorus tenellus can grow as much as 5 to 10 cms long and have a feather-like appearance. Although it bears resemblance to hairgrass plant, the leaves of E.tenellus are coarser, larger and thicker which lends a rugged natural look to the aquarium. The rosette leaves have a rich green hue when subjected to optimum lighting conditions. Otherwise, they tend to become reddish brown in color. Hard/Soft plant: Hard plant Ideal water temperature conditions: Echinodorus tenellus prefers a wide range of tropical temperatures between 19 and 30 degree Celsius. Ideal lighting conditions: Echinodorus tenellus can tolerate moderate to bright lighting requirements for optimum growth. Optimum water pH levels: Echinodorus tenellus thrives in water having pH levels range between 5 and 7.5. Uses and Advantages: 1) Echindorus tenellus is a versatile aquatic plant. It is ideal as a carpeting plant for medium to large size aquariums and as a background plant in nano aquariums where carpeting plants are used in the foreground. 2) When planted between stones, it creates a softer tank environment. Otherwise, the dense foliage gives a rugged natural look to the aquarium. 3) The leaves of Echinodus tenellus serves as a hiding place for small fishes and fry. They provide a nesting place for spawning fishes. Did you know? Echinodorus tenellus sends out runners and plantlets appear along with their length. Once roots appear, the plantlets can be snipped and replanted in the substrate. New plants will develop in no time. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
