Hygrophila Lancea Chai
✅These are already in their 💯% aquatic forms - will NOT melt when added to your tank
Hygrophila Lancea 'Chai' is a striking variegated cultivar of the Hygrophila Lancea "Araguaia" known for its unique color contrast. This stem plant features narrowly linear, curved leaves with a green zone running down the middle, while the edges boast a vibrant white to pink coloration. Reminiscent of Cryptocoryne wendtii 'Flamingo' and 'Pink Panther' in its color scheme, the submerged Hygrophila Lancea 'Chai' grows in a bushy, spreading form. However, to achieve its full potential and maintain a low, compact bush, it needs strong lighting, CO2 injection, and a nutrient-rich substrate. While not for beginners due to these specific requirements, this slow-growing plant adds a pop of color and a touch of elegance to the midground or foreground of your well-established aquarium.
Ease level: moderate or experienced
Size: 4-6 inches in height
Likes: high lighting
Does not require CO2 injection, but it will thrive better with CO2
Placement: foreground or midground
PH: 6.0-8.0
Quantity: one plant
