Justin Hunter –
Grew well in my 20-gallon tank with moderate lighting. The plant spread slowly but formed a nice dense rosette. Easy to root and stays healthy with no CO₂.
Edward Hodges –
Arrived healthy and rooted quickly. I placed it in the foreground with a bit of sand substrate. It looks natural and fills the space well without needing extra light.
