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.

  • Light requirement: high
  • CO₂ requirement: high

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.

Planted in a group, it creates a beautiful effect mimicking a sunset in the aquarium, especially when planted behind gray rocks.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..

Myriophyllum mattogrossense
Myriophyllum MattogrossenseMyriophyllum Mattogrossense, also known as red columbine, is a decorative aquarium plant that is quite demanding.Growing difficulty: demandingLight requirements: strongCO₂ requirements: strongOutgrown plant height: up to 60 cmGrowth: fastTemperature: 24-28°CPlacement in aquarium: third levelOrigin: South AmericaCup diameter 6 cmMyriophyllum Mattogrossense or red coneflower is a rather demanding, although easy to grow tertiary plant. It is native to Brazil, more specifically to Mato Grosso in the Rio Amazon. It has long, brittle stems with pinnate, whorled leaves.The plant itself is reminiscent of dill in appearance. Under good conditions, it can bloom with small, red, single flowers. It needs a fertile, rich substrate and very intense lighting. Only then can it develop its full potential and show its beauty in the aquarium. It does not like coarse gravel, it grows much better in a fine but permeable substrate. Intensive CO₂ fertilization is advisable. Liquid fertilizer added to the water column will also improve the aesthetic qualities of the plant, which likes to make use of these resources. If it is well fertilized, it grows luxuriantly and the stems have a beautiful red color. It needs a long day, so the light should be on for at least 8-10 hours. It is very sensitive to the parameters that are not maintained. With regular water changes it grows vigorously and the leaves spread into green fans, while in old water the leaves become much smaller and unsightly. If you change the water every few months, you may lose the plant. Myriophyllum Mattogrossense thrives in both soft and hard water.pH 6-7.2.Temperature 24-28°C It is also important that you prune the Myriophyllum regularly. If the plant is not pruned, it will get very fine leaves, especially in the lower part, which will look very unflattering. Regular pruning of the tops helps to prevent this. The plant reproduces very easily, it is enough to plant the cut tip in fertile soil, and it will quickly form a rich, filamentous root system. Due to the need for fertilizer and the capriciousness of the plant, it is not recommended for beginners in aquaristics. The plant is grown in vitro and is free of snails, parasites and algae. A high quality gel was used as a nutrient solution for breeding, so it can quickly and easily adapt to new conditions..

Hygrophila lancea 'Chai'
Hygrophila lancea 'Chai'A striking color distinguishes this foreground plant - an eye-catcher in any aquarium.Cultivation difficulty: moderately demandingLight requirement:  highCO₂ requirement: medium to highAdult plant height: Bushy, low growthGrowth: SlowTemperature: 20 - 28°CPlacement in aquarium: ForegroundOrigin: South Island Aquarium in Singapore. Cup diameter: 6 cm Unique pink Hygrophila 'Chai' is a striking variegated cultivar of Hygrophila lancea "Araguaia" that appeared at South Island Aquarium in Singapore. Its narrow-lineal leaves, curved to the side, are green only in the center, the margin is white to pink. The shade is reminiscent of that of Cryptocoryne wendtii 'Flamingo' and 'Pink Panther'. So like the normal 'Araguaia', Hygrophila lancea 'Chai' grows submersed rather spreading and strongly branched. We recommend for Hygrophila lancea 'Chai' rather strong lighting, CO₂ addition and good macro and micronutrient supply. Growth is slow, and occasional cutting of shoot tips encourages bushy growth. Just like other stem plants, you can propagate this Hygrophila by heading and partial cuttings. Hygrophila lancea 'Chai' provides a unique bright pink color accent in the mid to foreground, best as a smaller bushy group. It contrasts strongly with dark plants and decorative materials.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.

Pogostemon stellatus (star plant)
Pogostemon stellatusPogostemon stellatus is a stem plant that does well in the third level of an aquarium. It shows a medium growth rate with beautifully colored leaves.. Growing difficulty: challengingLight requirements: highCO₂ requirements: highGrown plant height: up to 40 cmGrowth rate: mediumTemperature: 19-29 °CPlacement in aquarium: Third levelOrigin: Asia and AustraliaCup diameter 6 cmPogostemon Stellatus (Stellate whorl) is a beautiful plant that does well in the third level in an aquarium. This species is native to Southeast Asia, but it can also be found in Australia. It is one of the most beautiful stem plants in aquaristics. Depending on conditions, leaf colors can range from green to a beautiful muted red. The underside of the elongated leaves often turns bright purple. The plant has average growth and relatively high requirements. It is not recommended for aquarium novices. It should be provided with a nutrient-rich substrate from which the root system can absorb all the minerals necessary for growth. It can be kept in a wide range of water temperatures between 19 and 29 °C. It grows in water of medium hardness, but prefers soft water of 1-13 dH with a pH of 5-7. Strong lighting, CO₂ dosage and micronutrient fertilization are required for good and trouble-free growth. With a low content of trace elements, especially iron, in the water, the leaves turn light green to yellow. It is normal for this species to temporarily limit its growth. After forming some offspring shoots, the plant resumes its growth. Pogostemon Stellatus can be propagated vegetatively. Simply cut the stem to a few inches in height. Then stick the cut part into the substrate, where it will take root after some time. The plant can also be kept well in the paludarium. However, it should receive a high humidity of over 80%, a temperature of 30-35 °C, a nutrient-rich substrate and intense lighting. Planting: Remove the plant from the cup and rinse the gel thoroughly under running water. A good option is to place the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Then separate the cuttings and place them in the substrate..
