AquaArt Eleocharis parvula

'Eleocharis parvula' or dwarf needle rush is an excellent ground cover that forms turf-like, fine-halved carpets. If you divide the plant into small clumps, plant them in staggered rows and provide good light conditions, you can quickly enjoy densely vegetated areas. This sedge is considered a safe choice because it is rather undemanding and hardly needs any pruning - the height varies between 3 and 7 cm - but the success rate is very high! The only thing missing is the football for Rinaldo ornamental fish and Megan shrimp - kick-off!

Note: Cups are grown in the laboratory. Aquatic plants from the so-called in vitro culture are grown sterilely. They are therefore also suitable for sensitive animals such as dwarf shrimps and can be used immediately. There are no stowaways such as snails or parasites with in vitro plants, and pesticides are not used at all.
