Eleocharis Parvula Mini AKA Dwarf Hair Grass is a staple foreground plant that resembles a lawn of grass in a backyard. This plant is the epitome of underwater lawns and its thin stalks grow vertically from roots that spread by sending runners horizontally.
High lighting and CO2 injection are not necessarily required to grow Dwarf Hair Grass, but is highly recommended if you’d like it to grow in lush and quick. The difference is highly noticeable. 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 as once it sends runners out, the plant grows quickly.
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.
