Grew quickly in my 10-gallon tank with moderate lighting. The green color is vibrant and spreads well through runners. Easy to maintain and looks great in the foreground.

Fast growth and clean appearance. I didn’t use CO2, but added liquid fertilizer weekly. It spread nicely and filled the front section of the tank.
