Hc Carpet Emersed

Growing hc also need luck some can grow it without cold water but some with cold water also cannot make them flourish.

Hc carpet emersed.

Another two weeks and i expect it will be covered. As for hc you will need high light and lower temp so that it will grow better. Hey all the title says it all. In the submersed form it looks almost same as an emersed form with cushion like growth or low carpet.

I have grown hc emersed and submersed it it loses some of its leaves but doesn t take forever to grow back. This light level is probably excessive. 17 days from planting three small 4x4cm pots of hc. It will carpet but the leaves are a totally different shape than dwarf baby tears hemianthus callitrichoides pictures below hemianthus micranthemoides giant baby tears pearlweed hm hemianthus callitrichoides dwarf baby tears hc hope that helps.

Sometimes you can see the tiny white flowers in the axils. With excel and ample lighting the hairgrass was spreading much much faster and denser on submersion. This video is of my little h. Mosses in particular have very different emersed structures and can be quite cool looking.

Majority in the trade or aquaria market sells cuba in the emersed form and it has roundish leaves. But it does demonstrate that high light no co2 doesn t always translate into an automatic algae fest that is if the plants are growing well. All fine in about a week or 2. Glosso will be a better choice if it is frst time trying.

Cuba has smaller leaves and a bit narrower. Will hemianthus callitrichoides require co2 to carpet if a part of it is emersed. Just started my hc carpet 1 5week ago going to complete the emerse to submerge stage. The emersed part will be misted and fogged regularly in the paludarium.

It s almost tempted me to start a palaudarium. The carpet of glossostigma in the picture below is grown using 150w metal halides hung 2 feet above the tank. Imo it s all about lighting and co2. This method should work well for all mosses most grasses and most other carpet plants like hemianthus callitrichoides and glossostigma elatinoides.

However i think the initial 1 month of being established when emersed helped a lot and prevented algae issues with the hairgrass.
