Cardamine Hydrocotyle Live Aquatic Plant
Hydrocotyle Leucocephala - Cardamine
The leaves are roundish and grow on a tendril-like stem. This pennywort is one of the easiest aquarium plants and can be recommended to beginning aquarium keepers without any reservation. It does well in almost any water parameters and doesn't have high requirements. High temperatures are not really a problem, which makes it a great candidate for planted Discus tanks.
Its leaves turning yellow at the edges are a sure sign of iron deficiency, which can easily be remedied by adding an iron fertiliser to the water, though.
- Very easy to grow plant.
- Great for beginners.
- Cardamine roots very quickly and should adapt to most aquariums without issue.
