Care Tips: Hygrophila pinnatifida is a versatile, medium-growing plant that adds unique texture to aquascapes with its finely divided, pinnate leaves. It thrives in medium to high lighting, where its vibrant green color stands out. This plant benefits from a nutrient-rich substrate and will grow more vigorously with the addition of CO₂. While it can adapt to a variety of water conditions, stable water parameters, regular fertilization, and occasional trimming will help keep it healthy. It is perfect for the foreground or midground, providing a lush, bushy effect. This plant works well in both low-tech and high-tech aquariums, though it performs best with moderate to high light and consistent nutrient availability. Be sure to avoid burying its crown in the substrate to prevent rot.
