HYGROPHILA PINNATIFIDA 5xStems Tropical Fish Tank Snail Free

Hygrophila Pinnatifida

Hygrophila pinnatifida's fern-like appearance allows it to blend well with mosses and wood.

It obtains brown, patched leaves on the surface with a distinctive burgundy colour underneath. 

Leaves are in reddish coloration and unique leaf shape serves as good contrast against green plants.

H.Pinnatifida can be used in bunches in the mid ground or attached onto any type of hard scape using super glue or thread or cable ties. The horizontal side shoots also easily attach to both wood and rocks. 

It is tolerant of wide range of water parameters and is an easy plant to grow with CO2 injection although it can be used reasonably well even in low tech tanks.
