Micranthemum Micranthemoides (Pearl Weed) UNS Tissue Culture

Common Name: Pearl Weed Tissue culture plants are grown in vitro from a state of the art laboratory specialized in propagating aquatic plants.  They provide the best option for those who want to ensure that absolutely zero unwanted pests are introduced into the aquarium.   Pearl weed is a bright green, low-growing stem plant perfect for beginners. It is a versatile species which can be used for both foreground, midground and background.  Constant pruning will keep it low growing and spread runners horizontally.  Leaving it untrimmed will allow it to grow vertically as a background plant.  The shape and growth of the plant depends on the conditions so you must plan accordingly if you have a specific vision for how it will fit into your aquascape. This plant is similar in appearance to other carpeting plants, and can be a low-maintenance alternative if you are having trouble getting foreground coverage in your tank. This plant grows best with moderate light and CO2 levels around 6-14ppm.
