Native to New Zealand, Lilaeopsis Novae-Zelandiae is a slow-growing, grass-like carpeting plant ideal for natural-style aquascapes. With its fine, upright green blades, it creates a soft meadow-like foreground, perfect for adding texture and realism to riverbank and open-layout designs.
Key Features:
- Native New Zealand carpeting species
- Fine, bright green grass-like blades
- Ideal for nano tanks and natural aquascapes
- Low-growing and slow-spreading
- Excellent for foreground or midground use
Care Instructions:
- Lighting: Requires medium to high light to grow compact and healthy.
- Substrate: Performs best in nutrient-rich substrate; root tabs can support growth in inert gravel or sand.
- CO₂: Recommended for better spread and vitality, though not essential.
- Trimming: Trim full leaf blades at the base—partial cuts will cause the remainder to rot.
- Water Parameters: Prefers 18–26°C, pH 6.5–7.5, and moderate flow conditions.
