Ecoscape Eleocharis Minima - In Vitro

You will receive: 1 In Vitro cup (Ecoscape) — completely free of algae, snails, and pathogens. Ready to plant directly into any aquarium.

⚠️ Level: Medium — Eleocharis Minima requires a lot of light and CO₂ for a dense, compact carpet.

Eleocharis Minima is the smallest needlegrass you can get — only 6 cm high and perfect for nano aquariums and iwagumi-style aquascapes. The fine, grassy stems form a dense, soft carpet via runners. The Ecoscape In Vitro version is 100% sterile grown — ideal for shrimp tanks and sensitive aquariums.

✂️ Care

Gently rinse the culture gel under lukewarm water. Divide the cup into small bunches of 5–10 stems and plant 1–2 cm apart in fine sand or gravel. Plenty of light and CO₂ are strongly recommended for a dense carpet. Liquid fertilizer such as Sera Florena supports healthy growth.
