Description

Myriophyllum tuberculatum inhabits slow-flowing and stagnant bodies of water throughout the northern half of South America. M. tuberculatum is a challenging plant to cultivate successfully within an aquarium. Intense lighting of 3 watts per gallon or more and CO2 are necessities if one hopes to have success with this Myriophyllum. Nitrates and phosphates should be dosed and kept at acceptable levels (5-15 ppm and 1-2 ppm respectively). Neither of these two macronutrients should ever be allowed to reach zero or stunting of the shoots will result. M. tuberculatum requires more iron and micronutrients than most other stem plants. Without sufficient micronutrients, the stems of this species will become very dark and small, and in cases of extreme deficiency, the death of the meristem will result. When conditions are to its liking, M. tuberculatum will attain a maximum diameter of four inches and will turn to a rusty red color. As with any reddish stem plant, this species is best used as a focal point or a colorful accent. When healthy, groupings of this species can make for a stunning, eye-catching fireball. It looks very beautiful when planted alongside green Myriophyllum and Limnophila spp.. It is also appropriate for small planted aquaria, due to its fine leaves and modest size. You will receive one(1) bunch of plants, 4-7 stems per bunch. If buying more than one plant I combine shipping, please check out my other plant items. Shipping will be priority mail. I charge a flat $6.50 for eastern states and $7.50 for western states no matter how many plants you order.
