Plant the stems in the foreground or attach them to driftwood or stone with fishing line or glue. The plant grows slowly — patience pays off. CO₂ and sufficient light promote compact growth. Liquid fertilizer such as Sera Florena supports healthy growth.

💡 Planter's Tip

Due to its slow growth and compact form, Porto Velho is ideal for nano aquariums where other plants grow too quickly. Combines beautifully with Bucephalandra or Anubias Nana Petite on wood for a varied, low foreground.
