READ ME: Our aquarium plants vary in growth forms and will require time to transition to submerged or emersed conditions. We do our best to clean and inspect all plants prior to shipping but do not guarantee them to be snail free unless tissue culture is purchased.
Tissue culture plants are cultivated in sterile lab settings ensuring your plant is free from pests, snails and algae! These are young specimen that are grown in emersed forms. Gel should always be removed prior to planting.
Live plants are susceptible to stress and damage from transit. - This may appear in the form of minimal melt, leaf loss, cosmetic damage, etc. Refunds or replacements will not be issued for plants with viable root systems or that die out of our care.

Eriocaulon Cinereum is a rare sight in the planted aquarium tank community. This Eriocaulon displays sharp foliage sprouting from its mid-point. Eriocaulon is a very ornamental aquatic plant with its unique hedge-hog like appearance. Difficult to obtain, there is little-known information about this aquatic plant other than being part of the Eriocaulon family. Notorious for being difficult to keep, Eriocaulon Cinereum is not an exception and isn't recommended for beginner aquarists as this particular aquarium plant requires specialized care to grow properly.
Eriocaulon Cinereum does best in soft water with nutrient-dense aquarium soil, high aquarium LED lighting, high levels of CO2 injection and a consistent supply of micro and macronutrients. Erio Polaris is highly coveted for its small size, classic "tuft" look, and soft green hue. If able to keep this aquatic plant alive, Eriocaulon Cinereum looks great in the midground of a planted aquarium tank when kept in groups and is a wonderful midground aquatic plant choice in a planted aquarium tank.
