Overview: Popular as Pearl Weed, Hemianthus Micranthemoides is a beautiful aquatic plant that can be grown in the midground or foreground setup. It can be used for carpeting the tank. It is native to North America and popular for its small, bright green leaves and low-growing habit. The dense and bushy pattern of growth is another benefit that helps get a lush-green aquascape. Pruning it regularly will help attain the desired look of Pearl Weed. It instantly adds vibrancy to the tank. At the same time, it is easy to grow and maintain; therefore, it is perfect for beginner aquarists too. You can also attach it to the driftwood to attain a different look. Hemianthus Micranthemoides belongs to the Scrophulariaceae family. Under the right water conditions, it grows around 5 to 8 inches per month.

Advantages: When grown in in-vitro conditions, the tissue culture variant of Hemianthus Micranthemoides stays free from pests and pathogens. The chances of algae growth also become null, making it suitable for aquarium culture. Tissue culture plants are free from snails and almost all types of contaminants. It also makes them suitable for beginner aquarists. Tissue culture plants ensure that an already established tank will be safe from pests and other infestations.

Care: The first step for growing a tissue culture plant of Hemianthus Micranthemoides is rinsing off the gel gently with water. Once the gel is removed, divide the plants into small clumps and plant them a few centimeters apart in the substrate. You may need to trim the plants regularly to ensure they get the desired shape. It will also prevent overgrowth of the plant.

Light Requirements: While Hemianthus Micranthemoides can survive well in medium lighting, high light will proliferate its growth. High-light will also help Pearl Weed to attain compact growth and grow like a carpet. On the other hand, low light will result in leggy and upward growth.

pH Requirement: The right pH for Hemianthus Micranthemoides to grow is between 6 and 7.5. However, it can tolerate little fluctuations as well. Still, you must try to maintain the right range for the best result.

Other Requirements: Even though carbon dioxide is not recommended for Hemianthus Micranthemoides, adding it will help it attain optimal growth. It will also give the plant a compact form. The ideal temperature range is between 22 and 28 degrees Celsius. A nutrient-rich substrate will help the plant to grow better. You must provide a regular dosing of liquid fertilizers to it.
