Eco Plant - Eleocharis Acicularis - InVitro small cup

About the plant Eleocharis Acicularis:
Eleocharis Acicularis is a classic plant that has been used in aquaristics for years. It is usually utilized as a foreground plant. Eleocharis Acicularis is very similar to its popular counterpart, Eleocharis Parvula, but is slightly taller, making the plant more versatile.

Care is also comparably easy, and CO2 dosing is not required. However, CO2 will accelerate growth, ultimately providing a dense carpet of grass.
When dosing CO2, high-quality lighting and nutrient-rich substrate with a high content of macro and micronutrients, such as Neo Soil, should be provided.

To plant, simply divide the contents of the cup into small portions and plant each portion about 2.5 cm apart. After planting and rooting, regular trimming will be required as the plant grows quickly. To maintain the plant, Neo Tabs Plant K and Neo Tabs Plant Tab fertilizers are sufficient.
