Hygrophila pinnatifida on coconut shell

Product description

About the species

Coconuts are becoming increasingly popular with aquarium enthusiasts both for their practicality and aesthetics. We decided to pair one of our best sellers, the beautiful Hygrophila pinnatifida with our sustainable coconut caves. Hygrophila pinnatifida comes from India.

With its brown, lobed outer leaves and distinctive burgundy color underneath, Hygrophila pinnatifida is a guaranteed eye-catcher. Growth is moderate, stems 15-40 cm high and 10-20 cm wide, and the color is attractive when planted in small groups against a plain background.

It is recommended to trim the stems for a more "bushy" growth.

FAQ about Hygrophila pinnatifida on coconut shell

How do I place Hygrophila pinnatifida på kokosnötskal in the aquarium?

The plant arrives attached to its decorative material and can be placed directly in the desired position. Make sure it is stable and cannot fall against the glass or animals.

Should the plant’s rhizome be buried?

Leave the plant attached to the material. For rhizome plants such as Anubias, Bucephalandra and Java fern, the rhizome must not be covered by substrate because it may rot.

Does Hygrophila pinnatifida på kokosnötskal need CO₂?

Many attached plants grow without added CO₂, although CO₂ and balanced nutrition may improve growth. Match the lighting to the species to discourage algae.

How should I care for the plant after placement?

Remove damaged leaves, keep debris off the decoration and allow the plant time to adapt. Avoid moving it repeatedly while it establishes.
