Care Tips: Nomaphila Siamensis Dwarf is a smaller variant of the standard Nomaphila Siamensis, making it an excellent choice for aquariums with limited space or for aquascapes requiring a low-growing plant. It features slender green leaves and a compact growth habit, adding a beautiful texture and color to your aquarium. The plant thrives in temperatures between 22–28°C and tolerates slightly acidic to neutral water (pH 6.0–7.5). With medium to high lighting, it will maintain its vibrant green color and compact shape. It is ideal for the foreground to midground positions in the tank. Nomaphila Siamensis Dwarf benefits from nutrient-rich substrates and CO2 supplementation to promote healthy growth. Regular trimming is recommended to prevent it from becoming leggy and to keep the plant dense. For propagation, simply cut the stems and replant the cuttings. It is a relatively low-maintenance plant, but it requires consistent lighting and nutrient levels to thrive and keep its vibrant color.
