Midground
Picture its place. Understand its size.
This Myriophyllum stays bright green even in strong light. Fine stems branch into a full group, useful in small aquariums. Maintenance should preserve paths for light and water movement.
Tropica guide after roughly two months. “+” means the plant may exceed this height; it is not an adult maximum.
The supplied cup · In-vitro
What it needs. And why.
Light
MediumProvide enough light down to the leaves and avoid shade from neighbouring plants.
CO₂
MediumA steady pressurised CO₂ supply is recommended to support growth under suitable lighting.
Nutrition
Roots and leaves contribute to nutrition. Match nutrient additions to the substrate, water and observed growth rather than automatically combining fertilisers.

From the cup to your layout.
A few steps suited to this plant for a good start.
1Rinse off the growing medium
Gently remove the plant from its cup and rinse off the culture gel before placement.
2Divide gently
Prepare small healthy portions without crushing leaves, stems or roots.
3Plant in the substrate
Space portions so light and water can pass between them. Bury the roots while keeping rosette crowns exposed.
Pruning and ongoing care
Shorten and thin regularly; do not let branching create an opaque mass.
Understanding acclimatisation
An In-vitro cup contains young plants. Shape, colour and size can change after immersion. Watch new growth, remove deteriorating parts and keep conditions stable. Report plants damaged on arrival; acclimatisation does not explain every problem.
