Myriophyllum aquaticum (green)

The fine foliage of Myriophyllum aquaticum makes it a beautiful aquarium plant. It only thrives in good light. A nutritious bottom and CO addition promote growth significantly. M. aquaticum grows well in hard water, but this is not necessary for optimum growth. It is most beautiful when planted in groups, but do not plant shoots too close because this will prevent light reaching the lower leaves.
