I have had great success with this plant under specific conditions: Use a fertile substrate, this plant likes to root! I do not dose any nitrate (I have 2 otto's and 50+ RCS in my 10 gallon. Their poop will suffice). I dose plenty of phosphate as well as iron. Micro nutrients are also important for this plant. CO2 is a must or else it will stunt and die. High light is also a must, and you cannot let this plant be shaded. If you achieve the right conditions this plant will look spectacular. Good luck!
