How to Care and Propagate
Care Tips
- Lighting: Low to moderate lighting prevents algae from forming on the textured leaves.
- Placement: Attach to driftwood, rocks, or plant in substrate with the rhizome exposed to avoid rot.
- Fertilizer: Use liquid fertilizer occasionally for optimal growth, though not mandatory.
- Maintenance: Prune yellow or damaged leaves as needed to keep the plant healthy.
Propagation Steps
- Divide the Rhizome: Use a sharp, clean tool to cut the rhizome into sections with at least 3β4 healthy leaves.
- Replant: Attach the sections to hardscape or place in substrate, keeping the rhizome above the surface.
- Grow: Position the new plants in your aquarium and let them establish and flourish.
