Echinodorus Tenellus is a grass-like foreground plant that resembles a hybrid of Dwarf Hair Grass and Micro Swords. This plant grows the same by sending runners horizontally from roots that spread and form a carpet.
High lighting and CO2 injection are not necessarily required to grow Echinodorus Tenellus, but is highly recommended for quicker and fuller growth. To plant, simply separate larger mats into small portions and plant each portion an inch or so apart half way into the substrate. Once established, regular trimming will be required.
tissue culture plants are grown in-vitro by laboratories who specialize in propagating aquatic plants. There is a huge selection of plant species that have been propagated this way. This is truly the best option for those who want absolutely zero unwanted pests, algae and pesticides. This makes them perfect for shrimp keepers and any planted tank enthusiasts alike.
NOTE: It is important to remove the tissue culture agar gel before planting. Simply wash the gel away, divide, and plant.
