Echinodorus 'Rosé'

Product description

About the species

Large mother plant, grown in a 9 cm square pot. This beautiful plant is a hybrid between Echinodorus horemanii 'Red' and Echinodorus horizontalis. It was first produced in 1986 by Hans Barth in Dessau and is 25-40 cm high and a rosette from 15-25 cm wide.

New underwater leaves are a beautiful pink, and initially the leaves have reddish-brown spots. A nutrient-rich soil promotes growth, but otherwise Echinodorus 'Rosé' is undemanding and thus an excellent plant for beginners.

FAQ about Echinodorus 'Rosé'

How do I attach Echinodorus 'Rosé'?

Divide the moss into thin portions and attach it to rock or wood with thread or aquarium-safe glue. Thin layers receive better circulation and usually grow more evenly.

Does Echinodorus 'Rosé' need CO₂?

Most aquarium mosses grow without added CO₂, but steady CO₂, balanced nutrition and stable lighting can produce denser growth.

How do I keep Echinodorus 'Rosé' looking good?

Trim regularly and remove loose pieces and debris. Good circulation around the moss reduces trapped dirt that can inhibit growth.

Is the moss suitable for a shrimp aquarium?

Yes, moss provides a large biofilm grazing area and fine hiding places for shrimplets. Always check that the plant is clean before adding it to the aquarium.
