🌿 1-2-Grow! Tropica Helanthium tenellum 'Green' Tissue Culture Aquatic Plant 🌿

Achieve a stunning, natural foreground in your aquarium with Tropica’s 1-2-Grow! Helanthium tenellum 'Green'. This vibrant grass-like carpeting plant is perfect for aquascapers looking to create a lush, meadow-like effect in their freshwater tanks.

A close relative of Echinodorus, Helanthium tenellum 'Green' grows into a dense, bright green carpet under proper lighting. Unlike the standard Helanthium tenellum, this variant stays a vibrant green rather than developing reddish hues, making it an ideal choice for nature-style aquascapes.

🌱 Why Choose 1-2-Grow! Tropica Tissue Culture?

✔️ Pest-Free & Algae-Free – Grown in sterile lab conditions for a healthy start.
✔️ Safe for Shrimp & Fish – Free from harmful pesticides or contaminants.
✔️ Easy to Maintain – Forms a dense carpet without excessive trimming.
✔️ Compact Portion – Ideal for nano tanks and larger planted aquariums.

💧 Plant Care Guide:

  • Lighting: Moderate to High (Higher light promotes compact growth)

  • CO₂: Not required but enhances growth and density

  • Nutrients: Prefers nutrient-rich substrate and benefits from root tabs

  • Placement: Foreground

  • Temperature: 68°F – 82°F (20°C – 28°C)

  • pH: 5.5 – 7.5

  • Growth Rate: Moderate to fast under optimal conditions

🌿 Benefits:

✅ Creates a lush, natural carpet with minimal maintenance.
✅ Helps oxygenate the substrate and improve water quality.

🎁 What You’ll Receive:

1 x Tissue Culture Cup of Tropica Helanthium tenellum 'Green', grown in sterile conditions and ready to introduce to your aquarium after rinsing.

💡 Pro Tip: For a dense, even spread, plant small portions 1-2 cm apart and use moderate to high lighting. Occasional trimming helps maintain a uniform carpet.

🚫 Important:

  • Remove from tissue culture gel and rinse thoroughly before planting.

  • This plant prefers stable conditions for the best carpeting effect.
