Quick growing, it is a haven for tiny fish and baby shrimp! This potted variety of \"Hemianthus\/Micranthemum Micranthemoides\" is excellent for bare-bottomed tanks! Although Co2 is not at all needed, you'll see denser, lower carpeting growth with a higher-tech set up. Keep trimming for a dense carpet. Pearlweed will get tall and leggy in lower light.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePots are 1-3\" tall, well-rooted.

Yes, you can absolutely leave the rockwool in your tank! It's pretty inert, and will not harm your tank nor its inhabitants. If you want to keep it potted, you totally can! That said, if the rockwool is really not doing it for you, but you're worried about disturbing too much of the delicate root system these creepers have built, try this: Use some scissors to snip apart the top of the rockwool where the plant has rooted from the bottom. Snip into a flat circle, resembling a 'mat' of sorts. Now you can place that little mat in the gravel or other substrate, without having torn up too much of the root system!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Suggestions:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedium to Low light needs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow tech, unheated aquarium, 60-80F\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFast upright\/creeping growth rate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoot tabs recommended: No\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExcellent forage and shelter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs I keep natural planted tanks, snails may always be a possibility!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Glass Grown Aquatics","offers":[{"title":"1x Pot","offer_id":46325703671979,"sku":"113020","price":7.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"3x Pots","offer_id":46325703704747,"sku":"113021","price":21.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"5x Pots","offer_id":46325703737515,"sku":"113022","price":36.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"10x Pots","offer_id":46325703770283,"sku":"113023","price":75.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/0142\/7371\/files\/H.micranthemoidesuprightfromdifferentside_6feb9d9b-bd0f-46ac-9519-19dfdab228d7.jpg?v=1773778301","url":"https:\/\/walnutcreekpet.com\/products\/potted-pearlweed","provider":"Walnut Creek Pets LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
