Supplied as tissue culture, it arrives free of pests, algae, and snails — a clean, healthy start that's hard to find in regional stores.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"color: #2d5f3f; margin-top: 20px;\"\u003ePlant Snapshot\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize Sold:\u003c\/strong\u003e Tissue culture cup\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth Habit:\u003c\/strong\u003e Floats naturally, or tie\/glue to wood or rock for a carpet\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlacement:\u003c\/strong\u003e Foreground carpet or surface floater\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLighting:\u003c\/strong\u003e Low is fine for floating; moderate to high needed for carpeting\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 20–28°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003epH:\u003c\/strong\u003e 6.0–7.5\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDifficulty:\u003c\/strong\u003e Easy (floating) to moderate (carpeting)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"color: #2d5f3f; margin-top: 20px;\"\u003eIdeal Habitat and Care\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eLeft to float, Riccia is nearly effortless and provides great cover and grazing surface for fry and shrimp. To use it as a carpet, tie or glue small portions onto hardscape — it benefits from stronger lighting and CO2 in this setup to stay compact rather than growing loose and stringy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3 style=\"color: #2d5f3f; margin-top: 20px;\"\u003ePropagation \u0026amp; Trimming\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDivide portions straight from the cup to start multiple mats or floating clumps.
