Eleocharis parvula
Eleocharis sp. ’Mini’
Fissidens fontanus
The cosmopolitan Eleocharis parvula has short leaves and fast growth making it one of the most impressive carpetforming foreground plants, 3-10 cm tall depending on light conditions. It spreads rapidly by runners. It is a relatively easy and undemanding plant that does best with good light and a nutritious substrate.
Eleocharis sp. ’mini’ has even lower growth than the common Eleocharis parvula and was given to Tropica by Thomas Barr from US. Plant the mini-version in small portions covering a larger area. In short time, a dense carpet will be obtained. Needs light to perform optimal, however, it is one of the most secure species for creating a carpet – and a minimum of maintenance since leaves stays small (3-5 cm).
This featherlike Fissidens-moss with tight deep green down comes from North America. It grows relatively slow and requires much more light than other mosses. Suitable for binding roots and stones both vertically and horizontally in the aquarium.
