Eleocharis acicularis 'Dwarf Hair Grass'
Eleocharis acicularis, also known as Dwarf Hairgrass, is a popular choice for aquascapers seeking to create a stunning and vibrant green carpet in their freshwater aquariums. This fast-growing, low-maintenance plant is native to North America and boasts long, light green, grass-like leaves that form a dense and aesthetically pleasing cover over the substrate.
Unveiling the Wonders of Dwarf Hairgrass:
- Vibrant Green Carpet: As Dwarf Hairgrass matures, it forms a lush, green carpet across the bottom of your aquarium, adding a touch of natural beauty and mimicking the appearance of a healthy underwater meadow.
- Low-Growing and Compact: Dwarf Hairgrass typically reaches a height of 2-6 cm, making it an ideal choice for foreground planting or creating a layered aquascape effect.
- Easy to Propagate: For those seeking to expand their green carpet, Dwarf Hairgrass is readily propagated by division of existing clumps.
Cultivating Success with Dwarf Hairgrass:
- Lighting: Dwarf Hairgrass thrives under medium-high to high lighting conditions. Insufficient light can hinder growth and prevent the formation of a dense carpet.
- Substrate: For optimal results, plant Dwarf Hairgrass in a nutrient-rich substrate. Consider adding root tabs or utilizing a fertilizing regimen to provide the necessary nutrients for healthy growth.
- Water Parameters: Ensure your aquarium water is fully cycled and maintains stable parameters. Poor water quality can negatively impact Dwarf Hairgrass, causing melting and die-off.
- Trimming: Many hobbyists prefer to regularly trim Dwarf Hairgrass to maintain a dense and uniform carpet effect.
Unmatched Quality and Convenience:
- Disease and Pest-Free: These tissue culture plants are cultivated in a sterile laboratory, ensuring they are free from pests, diseases, and algae.
- Superior Root Systems: Produced by professional horticulturalists, these plants boast established root systems, promoting healthy and rapid growth.
- Full and Thriving: Each 75mm pot is packed with vibrant, healthy plants, ready to enhance your aquarium.
- Nano-Friendly: The compact size of these tissue culture plants makes them perfect for nano aquariums.
Planting Instructions:
- Rinse Thoroughly: Before planting, gently rinse away all the agar jelly surrounding the roots.
- Separate with Care: Carefully separate the plants into smaller bunches for optimal placement within your aquascape.
