Easy to set up and grows quickly on the rock. I’ve had it for three months and it’s already covering a small surface. Water parameters were stable, and it didn’t show any signs of stress.
Madeleine Parr –
It’s a solid addition to my tank. I kept the lighting moderate and it thrived. Just make sure to acclimate it slowly to avoid shock.
