This petite and delicate water pennywort is highly favoured by aquascapers across Asia, where it goes by various names like "Hydrocotyle maritima" and Hydrocotyle sp. "Japan". Over the past few years, its popularity has surged within the European aquarium scene.
Adorned with clover-shaped light green leaves and creeping stems, this water pennywort adds a charming decorative touch. It's a fast-growing plant that's versatile and relatively undemanding, thriving in a range of conditions. For optimal development, strong lighting and CO2 injection are recommended. In low-tech tanks, it grows more slowly, with stems exhibiting a slanted, ascending growth pattern.
