Easy in moderate light. Fertiliser keeps the leaves full; CO2 is optional.

The Plant
Hygrophila odora is a green stem plant that grows bushy and dense. It handles a wide range of water and light, and does best under moderate light. Use it to fill the middle or back of the tank, where its green leaves contrast nicely with red or dark plants.

Comes as a Tropica tissue culture cup: grown in lab gel, so it arrives free of snails, algae, pests and pesticides. Rinse off the gel and split it into small portions to plant.

Growth rate: Medium

Planting Tips
Plant it in the midground or background. Trim it regularly to keep it compact and full.

Why Shrimp Keepers Like It
The dense green stems give shrimp plenty of surface to graze and cover to move through.
