Common Name: Dwarf Hairgrass
Formally known as E. acicularis 'Mini'. Eleocharis pusilla has even lower growth than the common Eleocharis parvula and was given to Tropica by Thomas Barr from USA. A great plant for Iwagumi style aquascapes.
Eleocharis pusilla 'Mini'
This is grown in-vitro and is kept in a nutrition medium. Remove the plants from the cup and rinse plant and roots in aquarium water to remove the medium. Seperate into portions and plant with aquascaping tweezers.
Plant in small portions to cover a large area. In short time, a dense carpet will be obtained. Needs light to perform optimally, however, it is one of the most reliable species for creating a carpet – and a minimum of maintenance since the leaves remain short (3-5 cm). Do recomend during water changes to loosen up debris that might be trapped in the carpet.
DO NOT RELEASE ANY PLANTS OR LIVESTOCK INTO LOCAL WATERWAYS.

Tropica tissue cultures are the best quality and value, especially for foreground plants. These look great!
