Sagittaria Pusilla - Loose
Create an easy, low-maintenance green lawn in your aquarium with Sagittaria pusilla, commonly known as Dwarf Sagittaria. This exceptionally hardy, grass-like plant features bright green, strap-shaped leaves that form short, compact rosettes. Unlike demanding carpeting plants, Dwarf Sagittaria is incredibly forgiving, thriving in low-light and low-tech setups without the need for CO2 injection. It spreads steadily by sending out runners across your gravel or sand, quickly forming a lush, natural-looking meadow that is perfect for shrimp, bottom-dwellers, and baby fish. Please note: Product images are AI-generated and will vary from the actual plant received.
Key benefits:
Effortless Carpet Plant: One of the absolute easiest grass-like plants to carpet, making it perfect for beginners who want a green foreground without high-tech equipment.
Extremely Adaptive: Highly resilient to varying water conditions, easily tolerating low light, hard water, and low nutrient levels.
Natural Bottom Cover: Provides an excellent, dense shelter for dwarf shrimp, fry, and shy bottom-dwelling species like Corydoras.
Specifications:
Form: Loose Bare-Root
Growth Rate: Moderate to Fast
Placement: Foreground to Midground
Light Requirement: Low to Medium
Co2 Requirement: Low (Not required)
Water type: Freshwater
Suggested use: Gently plant the roots of each runner directly into your substrate. Take care not to bury the central crown (where the leaves meet the roots) too deeply, as this can cause the plant to rot. Space the individual plantlets about an inch apart to allow them room to spread. While it survives in low nutrients, adding root fertilizer tabs near the base will significantly speed up its carpeting growth.
What’s included: 1 x Loose bare-root plant portion of Sagittaria Pusilla
