Its trimmings can be replanted to increase the size of the mat. If used for carpeting the aquarium, it should be trimmed weekly to promote horizontal growth. It does not require substrate, but does seem to absorb some of its nutrients through its roots when planted in substrate or attached to another surface. It will also sometimes even grow over rocks and mats. It will also benefit from CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e supplementation, but this is not required. In fact, it will require much more frequent trimming when CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e supplementation due to the dramatically increased, denser growth rate that such supplementation will promote.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003eThis listing is for the tissue culture form of Japanese Dwarf Pennywort. Tissue cultures are superior to traditional forms of aquarium plants in many ways. They are produced in a completely sterile environment which eliminates the possibility of them carrying pest snails or algae spores.
