Eleocharis Acicularis, also known as Needlegrass, is a grass-like aquarium plant with fine, needle-like stems. The height varies according to the amount of light — with plenty of light, the plant remains more compact and shorter. The plant spreads via runners and gradually forms a dense carpet of grass. Good fertilization and clean, clear water are important for healthy growth.
