✂️ Care
Gently rinse off the culture gel. Plant in the midground or background, or let it float on the water surface. Regularly remove young shoots if the plant grows too fast. Liquid fertilizer such as Sera Florena supports healthy growth.
💡 Planter's tip
As a floating plant, it dims the light and provides hiding places for shrimp and small fish — ideal for shrimp tanks.
