Narrow Leaf Micro Sword – Lilaeopsis mauritiana

Finding a grasslike carpeting plant that can grow without CO2 injection or intense lighting can be difficult. Thankfully, we have Lilaeopsis mauritiana. This species, like most, will grow faster if it’s given the royal treatment. However, it does seem to be content to grow slowly in medium light tanks without CO2. Softer substrates like soil or sand can be easier on this plant’s delicate root system. If the plants are treated carefully, coarser substrates will do just fine. Whichever substrate you use should be nutrient rich, either naturally or through good root fertilization with tablets.
