Pearlweed is a bright green, low-growing stem plant perfect for beginners.
It is a versatile species which can be used for both foreground, midground and background.
For super dense growth, use high light and CO2. Bright light will yield bushy growth, while moderate light yields looser, upward growth.
This plant grows best with moderate light and CO2 levels around 6-14ppm. However, pearlweed can usually get all the nutrients it needs from a nutrient-enriched substrate and healthy fish colony.
Propagation: Trim ends of stems and plant at least 1/2" apart in substrate.
