Tropica Lilaeopsis brasiliensis 1-2-Grow!

Lilaeopsis brasiliensis from South America can grow very compact, but a 'lawn effect' (4-7 cm tall) is only achieved at high light intensity. When planting in the aquarium small clumps (approx. 1/8 pot) should be placed a few centimetres apart to help the plants grow together more quickly. Place in an open position without shading from other plants.

Care requirements: Difficulty: Easy (per Tropica). Light demand: Medium. CO2 demand: Medium; added CO2 is beneficial. Growth rate: Slow. Placement: Foreground (carpeting lawn). Height in tank: 4-7+ cm. Aquarium plant from tissue culture in closed cup.
