Microsword is the creeping, carpeting plant you have been looking for! It spreads, looks, and trims just like grass, but is similarly needy of light and co2. Best for high- tech setups, but can survive in a lower tech aquascape. Be sure to give it as much light as you can. This species (lilaeopsis novaezelandiae) grows about 1-3" tall underwater, and spreads laterally, through root nodes. Just snip and replant for propogation. Excellent for sheltering baby shrimp or fry, and for growing excellent bio-films to improve the health of your whole tank. As I like to keep real ecosystems in my aquariums, there's always the possibility of harmless snail or dwarf shrimp hitchhikers! Rooted pots are between 3-6" tall. Grown EMERGENT Growing requirements: 65-80 Degrees Fahrenheit Ph 6.5-8 Medium to high light intensity. Fast growth speed Co2 recommended As I like to keep real ecosystems in my aquariums, there’s always a chance of harmless hitchhikers like snails or dwarf shrimp tagging along with your plants!I personally keep several beneficial snail species in my tanks, including Colorful Ramshorns, Bronze Bladder and Pond Snails, Mini Rams, and Malaysian Trumpet Snails. These snails stay relatively small, help clean the aquarium, and do not eat healthy plants or cause harm. However, if you’d rather avoid any hitchhikers, I highly recommend checking out our blog on how to safely disinfect aquarium plants before adding them to your tank:How to Bleach Dip Aquarium Plants SafelyAll plants are freshly snipped or harvested and packed right before shipment. I take great care in preparing every order and use methods that have consistently produced the best results over many years in the hobby. A lot of love goes into every package, so please don’t leave your plants sitting in a hot mailbox for too long 🙏 Thank you for looking, aqua friends! 💚
