Description
| Lighting | Moderate to High | Higher light promotes a compact, bushy, and carpeting growth habit; lower light causes it to grow taller and more upright. |
| Substrate | Nutrient-rich | A quality aquarium substrate is recommended. Root tabs or liquid fertilizers should be used, as the plant absorbs nutrients primarily through its leaves and the water column. |
| Water Parameters | Wide range | Tolerant of soft to hard water (pH 6.0-7.5). Ideal temperature is between 68-82°F (20-28°C). |
| CO₂ | Not mandatory | While not required for growth in a low-tech tank, CO₂ injection and high lighting will significantly boost growth rate, enhance color, and help maintain a dense, low-growing carpet. |
| Maintenance | Regular trimming | Prune frequently to maintain the desired shape and prevent the lower leaves from being shaded and dying off. |
