Characterized by its long, slender leaves that can grow up to 24 inches in height, creating a flowing, dense curtain effect in the tank. The leaves are dark green and can have a slightly twisted appearance, adding a dynamic texture to aquascapes. An excellent background plant, suitable for creating a natural “jungle” look, and it also provides great shelter for fish and fry. Thrives in a range of water conditions, preferring temperatures between 68-82°F and a pH of 6.5 to 8.0. It is adaptable to various lighting conditions, from low to high light, though higher light encourages faster growth. CO₂ supplementation is not necessary but can enhance its overall health and speed of propagation. Spreads through runners, sending out new shoots that can be easily separated and replanted to form a thick, lush carpet. Its ease of care, hardiness, and ability to oxygenate the water make it a favorite for beginner and advanced aquarists alike.
