Pearlweed is a dense creeping grower that propagates through runners and branches. Quick growing, it is a haven for tiny fish and baby shrimp! This loose variety of "Hemianthus/Micranthemum Micranthemoides" is excellent for creating beautiful aquascapes and Terrarium-style emergent aquariums.

Although Co2 is not at all needed, you'll see denser, lower carpeting growth with a higher-tech set up.

 One 2oz deli cup is roughly the size of a golfball. Please refer to the portion pictured in my hand to see what this looks like.

Grown SUBMERGED

Looking for the potted, better- rooted version of Pearlweed?

Growing Suggestions:

  • Medium to Low light needs
  • Low tech, unheated aquarium, 60-80F
  • Fast upright/ creeping growth rate
  • Root tabs recommended: No
  • Excellent forage and shelter!

As I like to keep real ecosystems in my aquariums, there's always the possibility of harmless snail or dwarf shrimp hitchhikers!
