Key Specifications

Additional Product Notes

• HC has the smallest oval leaves of the aquatic carpets, about the size of duckweed.
• At maximum size, MC leaves are about 3 to 4 times larger than HC.
• However, under lean and overcrowded conditions, MC can be very similar in size to HC.
• It will grow on wood or rock without substrate, and will even grow in tanks without CO2 injection if given enough light and time.
• Both MC and HC require pruning (in a CO2 injected tank with strong light, every 2 weeks if not 3) to stay in good shape.

How To Use

Rinse and inspect before adding to the aquarium. Attach rhizome plants to wood/stone instead of burying the rhizome, and provide suitable lighting and clean water flow.

Good To Know Before Buying

• Check the selected variant carefully before checkout, especially for size, hose diameter, capacity, food type or model compatibility.
• For livestock, medication, water-care and fertiliser products, always follow the product label and avoid overdosing.
• For equipment, compare the product size, power rating and connection size with your current aquarium setup before purchase.
