Littorella uniflora
This plant is grown in-vitro and is kept in a nutrient medium. Gently remove the plant from the cup and rinse in aquarium water to remove any medium. Seperate into portions and plants into substrate with aquascaping tweezers.
Tolerates quite low light intensity, but this will add to the length of leaves.
Each rosette is planted separately with a distance of a few cm. They will readily send out runners. In time a very characteristic carpet of fat and fleshy leaves – each 2-5 cm long and 0,1-0,3 cm wide – will be created. Be careful when maintaining the tank, the leaves are easily damaged. This plant does well in low light and CO2.
