Myriophyllum Guyana

Myriophyllum Guyana is a beautiful aquarium plant that is still relatively difficult to obtain in the planted tank hobby. This smaller aquatic plant species, like other Myriophyllum, features wispy, feather-like foliage that retains a vivid green hue. If provided with optimal conditions such as quality aquarium tank lighting, nutrient dense aquarium soil and a regular fertilizing routine, Myriophyllum Guyana branches willingly and has the capability to produce a dense and lush bush. Its moderate growth pace also makes this aquatic plant a perfect choice for nano-sized planted aquarium tanks as it will be much easier to keep under control when compared to fast-growing aquatic stem plants. Great for a decorative focal point, we recommend using Myriophyllum Guyana as a beautiful midground in a larger planted aquarium tank or as the background in a nano-sized planted aquarium tank.

Propagation is similar to other aquatic stem plants. Simply replant the trimmings into a quality aquarium soil. In addition, enough space should be left between stems to ensure that light is able to filter through to the lower leaves.

Tissue culture plants are grown in-vitro by laboratories who specialize in propagating aquatic plants. There is a huge selection of plant species that have been propagated this way. This is truly the best option for those who want absolutely zero unwanted pests, algae and pesticides. This makes them perfect for shrimp keepers and any planted tank enthusiasts alike.

NOTE: It is important to remove the tissue culture agar gel before planting. Simply wash the gel away, divide, and plant.
