Pearl Weed - Hemianthus Micranthemoides

Pearl Weed (aka Pearl Grass) is a green foreground plant that is elegant and very unique. Native to Central and North America, this plant does best with stable water parameters, and benefits from injected CO2, although not required. When combined with the right lighting and fertilizers, this plant will quickly spread and cover the entire front of your aquarium. Pearl Weed carpets can be particularly beautiful when trimmed regularly. When CO2 and high light are provided, I have found that it tends to spread laterally, carpeting thickly and quickly. When planted in low light without CO2, this plant tends to grow upwards and stretch towards the light, requiring more frequent trimming. Provides excellent hiding for shrimp and small invertebrates Care : Difficulty: Easy Temperature: 72-84 PH: 60-7.5 Max Size: 6-12” CO2: Not Required Lighting: Low-Moderate ranging to high DISCLAIMER: It is the buyer's responsibility to know what plants are allowed/legal to keep in his/her state. Before purchasing do some research and make sure you are allowed to keep this particular plant species. You should always follow your State's laws regarding keeping live aquatic plants. Do NOT release any plants into the wild. The plants I offer for sale are from my personal display tank, and share the tank with Malaysian trumpet snails, bladder snails, and multiple varieties of fish and shrimp.
