Description
Wö£fëñxXx Planted Tank Guru	Unique stem plant with "needle-shaped" leaves. Prefers soft, acidic water but is adaptable to hard water, as well. Meristem seems to suffer when there is an iron deficiency. Loves lots of light and CO2. Propagation by budding stems. Ted

Comment
fresh_lynny Planted Tank Guru	I have been looking for this plant for 2 years. I finally found some from Ben, but it arrived as brown puke. So disappointed. I love the delicate lok of this plant!

Comment
david10072 Algae Grower	This plant grows fast. If you cut the stem and do a propagation, it will grow right back on. Quite easy to handle.

Comment
Robert H Guru in Training	Its now being grown commercially in Florida, so it is no longer an "import" plant.
