Eriocaulon Cinereum

Eriocaulon Cinereum is a very interesting and eye-catching plant species for the foreground of an aquarium. The plant is characterized by slow growth and the shape of the leaves resembles needles.
  • Cultivation difficulty: moderately demanding
  • Light requirement: high
  • CO₂ requirement: high
  • Height of the adult plant: up to 5 cm
  • Growth: slow
  • Temperature: 19-29 °C
  • Placement in aquarium: in the foreground
  • Origin: Asia
  • 6 cm cup diameter
Eriocaulon Cinereum is an undersized plant that does well in the foreground of an aquarium. This species is found on the Asian continent, especially in countries such as China and the Himalayan region. In China it is very common in its natural habitat, but in other countries it is hard to find. Recently, it has gained popularity due to its original and unique structure and characteristic flowers.
The plant is characterized by very slow growth, as it takes about 6 months to form a rosette with a diameter of 10 cm. It reaches an average height of 5 cm. There must be a very fertile substrate, as the species has a very extensive root system. Through this, the plant absorbs most of the nutrients it needs for growth. It tolerates a wide range of water temperatures from 19 to 29 °C. It also grows in water with medium to high hardness,but prefers soft water. To ensure good growth, strong lighting and CO₂ dosage is essential, as well as micronutrient fertilization. Under these conditions, it will reward us with a beautiful rosette appearance with many young leaves.
The propagation of this plant can be done in several ways. The easiest and most popular is the division of the rosette. This can be done as early as about a month after planting the plant in the aquarium. To get new cuttings, pull out a single plant and remove it from the water. Use a sharp tool to carefully cut the rosette into smaller pieces, and then use tweezers to place them in the substrate. After some time, the cut should be covered with new leaves, and the plant will take on a spherical shape.
In aquariums, it likes to bloom, so its original inflorescences make an unusual decoration for any aquarium.

Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself.

Micranthemum umbrosum
Micranthemum umbrosum Micranthemum Umbrosum is a light green stem plant with small round leaves. Depending on how it is pruned, it is suitable for both the foreground and background of the aquarium. Difficulty of cultivation: easy Light requirement: medium, to high CO₂ requirement: medium Height of the adult plant: 20 cm Growth: fast Temperature: 22-26 °C Placement in the aquarium: Second level Origin: North and Central America Cup diameter: 6 cm Micranthemum Umbrosum (Round-leaved meadowfoam) is a naturally occurring plant in North and Central America. It grows both in water and in marshy areas. It is prized by aquarists for its unique appearance. The plant forms long stems with paired, alternate, small, round, light green leaves. It has a fairly well developed root system. It needs regular pruning and is easy to shape into a desired form. It is propagated vegetatively by cutting off the shoot tips and planting them in the ground. It likes water with a hardness of 2-12°N, a pH of 5.5-7.7 and a temperature of 24-26°C. It is sensitive to trypaflavin and can be damaged by snails. It has fairly high light requirements. With insufficient light, it pulls upward, and distinct gaps can be seen between the leaves. With sufficient light, it forms dense clumps that are pleasing to the aquarist's eye.Micranthemum umbrosum is usually placed in the background of the aquarium, but it also looks good in the foreground when cut short. It does not require absolute CO₂ fertilization, but grows much faster in its presence. When growing this plant, pay special attention to the proper concentration of iron in the aquarium water.. Planting:The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then set them at intervals of 1 to 2 cm.

Alternanthera reineckii 'Rosanervig
Alternanthera reineckii 'Rosanervig' Alternanthera Reineckii Rosanervig is a red aquarium plant for the middle ground of the aquarium. The striking pattern on the leaves makes this species a real rarity in any planted aquarium.. Growing difficulty: moderately demanding Light requirement: medium CO₂ requirement: medium Outgrown plant height: up to 30cm Growth: medium Temperature: 22-28°C Placement in aquarium: second level Origin: cultivated variety Cup diameter: 6cm Alternanthera Reineckii 'Rosanervig', or Alternanthera Reineka Rosanervig, also known as Red Ruby. You may also come across the name Alternanthera Cardinalis, but that is not the scientific name for this plant. It is a very impressive member of the Amaranthaceae family that looks best in the background, in the center of the tank.In large aquariums, it can be planted in the foreground. If regularly cut back to a height of 5-10 cm, it will form a beautiful red carpet. Its distinctive feature is the burgundy pink leaves with contrasting light veins. The color of the leaves depends on the conditions in the aquarium. It is popular for arrangements in Dutch style aquariums. It is recommended to plant 6-7 seedlings in a group to form a compact, interesting-looking shrub. This variety needs a lot of light and is quite a demanding plant in this respect. A fertile substrate is also essential. It grows well in active media. The plant easily reproduces by dividing shoots that grow at the base of the stem and leaves. Cuttings cut from the mother plant can be put directly into the substrate. They quickly form a root system. For lush growth is recommended average minimum fertilization of Alternantera rosanervig with CO₂, i.e. with a content of 6 - 14 mg/l. It is advisable to use liquid fertilizers so that the plant does not lack micro and macro elements. This variety is not very demanding on water parameters. It grows in soft to hard water with pH between 5 and 8. The leaves of Alternantera rosanervig are very dense, so the plant is often used by smaller fish as protection from predators, and shade-loving species like to stay under it. Alternantera rosanervig looks nice near species such as Hemianthus callitrichoides Cuba and Aponogeton boivinianus . It contrasts nicely with the green of the other aquatic plants.Planting:The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed of gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself.

It forms a dense green wall in the back of a small tank and provides an excellent hiding place for small, shy fish and shrimp species.Difficulty of growing: moderately demandingLight requirements: mediumCO₂ requirements: mediumHeight of mature plant: up to 30 cmGrowth: mediumTemperature: 23-27 °CPlacement in aquarium: Background or midground plantOrigin: South AmericaCup diameter 6 cm"Guyana" is an interesting cultivar of a coneflower well known to aquarists. It attains a very intense green coloration and forms a dense forest in the aquarium. It has beautiful decorative narrow leaves. Unique to it is that the plant remains bright green even in above-average light, while other paddlers turn red. Also, it grows relatively slowly and has short stems that branch easily. Thanks to its compact growth, it does well in nano aquariums. Guyana plant contrasts well with red plants, especially when planted as background for them.It requires fertilization with micro and macro elements, and it is also worth feeding it with CO₂ in gaseous form. It does not need a very fertile substrate, as it takes up most of its nutrients from groundwater. However, if you put fertilizer capsules or tablets under its roots, the plant will also benefit. You can propagate Myriophyllum very easily by cutting the plant to a length of about 5 cm and planting a new shoot in the substrate. The plant quickly sprouts new roots and begins to climb upwards.The delicate leafy leaves of the plant form a very dense clump in the aquarium, which immediately catches the eye. Myriophyllum sp. 'Guyana' is an ideal plant for aquarists who love nano tanks and delicate plants. The stems branch very easily and thicken into a showy thicket. Frequent shortening aids the branching process. In elaborately designed cubes, it is a real eye-catcher.In larger aquariums, there is a risk that Myriophyllum is hardly visible in the midst of larger-than-life plants, unless you plant it in dense clumps. The plant comes from an in vitro cultivation, which means that it is free from snails, parasites and algae. A high-quality gel was used as the culture medium, so it can quickly and easily adapt to the new conditions.Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Divide the contents of the cup into 3-4 cm lumps and then place them in the substrate..

Taxiphyllum sp. 'Flame' (flame moss)
Taxiphyllum sp. 'Flame'Taxiphyllum Flame is a moss genus from Southeast Asia with upward stems that resemble flames. As a mid-ground plant, it is often placed on roots.Difficulty of growing: easyLight requirements: lowCO₂ requirements: lowHeight of mature plant: 5-15 cmGrowth: mediumTemperature: 18 - 28°CPlacement in aquarium: Middle ground, on the decorationOrigin: Southeast AsiaShell diameter 6 cmThe compact, upright and gently swaying stems give the impression of a green campfire up to 15 cm high. Therefore, the Taxiphyllum is often called flame moss or burning moss. With its interesting growth habit, flame moss is great for decorating horizontal areas and can also be used as a lawn. It looks great when grafted onto branching roots. Ideal for nano aquariums, shrimp tanks, but also for larger tanks. Unlike most mosses, it grows quickly in height and spreads much more slowly laterally. It grows well on roots, rocks, coconut shells or other decorative elements. It has no extensive root system, so it is not suitable for planting in the ground. The Taxiphyllum does not need strong lighting or carbon dioxide fertilization to grow well. However, it will grow faster with stronger lighting. It tolerates a wide temperature range from 18 to 28 °C. Frequent water changes encourage its growth, but it does not tolerate rapid changes in water parameters. It grows well in both soft and hard water. It thrives without additional macro- or micronutrient fertilization. Pruning helps the plant to compact and grow, creating a strikingly dense bed. Pruning is done with sharp moss shears. The cut branches can be reinserted into the aquarium to propagate. Thein vitro culture of plants is carried out in tissue culture laboratories. The cuttings are free from snails, algae or pathogens thanks to the sterile production conditions.Planting:The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then place them on the selected items at a small distance..

Pogostemon likes to grow above the water surface. Pogostemon grows between 15 - 30 cm tall, but can reach up to 40 cm under favorable conditions. The width of a single stem is usually not more than 3 cm. The plant needs quite a lot of light, otherwise there are no major care requirements. Due to the moderate growth rate, pruning is rather rare. It tolerates water with a pH of 5.5-8 and water hardness of 1-20° dH. Pogostemon can be propagated by planting cut tips in the substrate. Pruning is recommended to maintain a compact structure. This variety is not difficult to grow as long as it receives sufficient light (at least 0.5 W/l). CO₂ fertilization is advisable.Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed of gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then place them at a small distance on the selected items..

Rotala rotundifolia 'Green
Rotala Rotundifolia 'Green' Rotala Rotundifolia 'Green' (Round-leaved Rotala) is a mid-ground plant. It is characterized by fast growth and moderate light requirements. The color is usually light green.Difficulty of growing: easy Light requirements: medium CO₂ requirements: not necessary Height of mature plant: 50-60 cm Growth: fast Temperature: 20-28°C Placement in aquarium: third level Origin: South Asia, Southeast Asia Cup diameter 6 cm The natural range of the round-leaved Rotalas (Rotala rotundifolia) is South, Southeast and East Asia. It has been spread by humans to Australia, the United States and Brazil, among other places. She is thus already almost a globetrotter.Rotala rotundifolia 'Green' is very similar to Rotala rotundifolia, but its leaves remain bright green even in bright light. This plant is characterized by its fast growth and its tendency to spread profusely, especially when regularly pruned. It tolerates medium light levels, but the higher the light, the more intense the plant's growth and colors. If left to grow freely, it reaches a length of 30-60 cm, cutting off access to light to the lower parts, where it begins to lose its leaves. Under favorable conditions, if left uncontrolled, it can dominate an entire tank, especially if it is a tank with a small capacity. Once it reaches the surface of the water, it begins to float on it. It does not need additional carbon dioxide fertilization unless you want to accelerate its growth even more. It is tolerant of pH and water hardness, although like most plants, it cannot tolerate extremes. It tolerates temperatures between 20 and 28 °C, but thrives better in the upper end of this range. It can grow in both an active and a poor substrate, but in this case it is advisable to fertilize under the roots. In well-lit, CO2-fertilized aquariums, it may require additional fertilization with macronutrients due to its rapid growth. Otherwise, it will lose its color and the leaves will become smaller. Rotala rotundifolia is propagated in the aquarium by cutting off stem pieces and placing them in a selected spot in the substrate. When transplanted to a new tank, it will need some time to acclimate and grow faster.Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then place them at a small distance into the substrate.

Lobelia Cardinalis
Lobelia cardinalis Lobelia Cardinalis is a green plant, recommended for the second level of the aquarium and for the paludarium. It looks great in a group and likes to grow above the water surface.Difficulty of growing: easyLight requirements: mediumCO₂ requirements: lowAdult plant height: up to 30 cmGrowth: mediumTemperature: 15-28°CPlacement in aquarium: second levelOrigin: North AmericaShell diameter 6 cmLobelia Cardinalis or Cardinal's Strophica is a plant native to North America. In the wild, it is found in wetlands and along riverbanks. It is distributed from the Gulf of Mexico through the eastern states of the United States to southern Canada. It grows in the ground and has a well-developed root system. The feathery stems can develop auxiliary roots in leafless areas. Its distinctive ornamental feature is the light green, oval leaves with a prominent pale central vein. It is very comfortable in a paludarium, where it forms a 0.5 m high flower head with red flowers. Lobelia can be cultivated in aquariums and paludariums. It thrives beautifully in muddy soil as well as underwater.It tolerates temperatures from 15 to 28 °C and can also be kept in a pond. It thrives best at 20-23°C. It does well in soft to medium hard water with a pH between 6.5 and 7.2.Without adequate light the leaves turn yellow, but in bright light the undersides of the leaves turn purple-red. It is not particularly demanding, but regular water changes, fertilizer and CO₂ support its growth and allow it to grow 5 cm per month. Uncut, it grows above the water surface by forming overwater leaves, and may also flower.In the aquarium, lobelia should be planted in a group in the background, but it also works well as a foreground plant. It is used in lobelia avenues or to form showy thickets. Pruning is necessary to maintain a beautiful habit; use scissors to remove older leaves. You can also cut back the entire plant and use the cut tips as cuttings. A young plant can also be grown from an old leaf. Cuttings rooted in a paludarium can be transplanted to an aquarium. In an aquarium, stem pruning forces the plant to form side shoots. Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Divide the contents of the cup into 3-4 cm lumps and then place them in the substrate..
