More about Elatine hydropiper
Elatine hydropiper, commonly known as waterwort, is a small aquatic plant species popular among aquarium enthusiasts. It features delicate, bright green leaves, which appear in whorls around a slender stem. Waterwort is an ideal choice for beginners due to its relatively low maintenance requirements. While it can thrive in a CO2-injected tank, it can also grow well without additional CO2 supplementation. This makes it a versatile choice for aquarists of varying skill levels. Its vibrant green coloration adds a refreshing touch to freshwater aquariums and creates a lush, natural appearance.
