Care Tips: Acorus pusillus is a smaller, more compact variety of Acorus with narrow, arching leaves that add a delicate texture to aquariums. It prefers moderate to high lighting to bring out its vibrant green foliage. This plant thrives in slightly acidic to neutral water and a nutrient-rich substrate. It is a medium grower and can be placed in the midground or background of your tank. Acorus pusillus benefits from occasional trimming to maintain its shape and prevent overgrowth. It can tolerate both submerged and emersed growing conditions, making it adaptable for various aquascaping styles.
