Mayaca fluviatilis aquarium plant

Pack Size: bare root – Approx 4-6 plants/stems

Mayaca fluviatilis is a stem plant from South and Central America. The stem is extremely soft and flexible which, in addition to the very narrow, bright green leaves, gives the plant a light and graceful expression. It branches willingly and the rapid growth makes regular pruning necessary.
This plant prefers soft, slightly acidic water, but it also thrives well in medium hard water.

Mayaca fluviatilis is known to get very pale shoots if it lacks iron.

A bundle of stems or young plants gathered in an anchor. Remove the anchor and split into separate plants. Regarding stem plants, remove the leaves from the lowest 5 cm (2“). Remove any damaged leaves. Plant the individual plants with some distance into the bottom substrate. Roots will develop soon and the plant start growing.
