Lilaeopsis brasilienses
Lilaeopsis brasiliensis has been in the hobby for years as one of the
few plants commonly available for the foreground. It is produced by
all the major nurseries of the world and can be obtained through
most any local fish store that stocks live plants. In its native habitat
of Brazil, L. brasiliensis can often be found growing along the
shores of streams in both emersed and submersed states. Despite
its common name 'Brazilian micro sword', this grass-like plant is
more closely related to the genera Limnobium and Hydrocotyle.
L. brasiliensis is not too difficult to grow, given enough light and
CO2 supplementation. This hardy species will even grow in dim
lighting. However, it will form dense, beautiful foreground lawns only when supplied with bright,
unobstructed light (3wpg or more). A rich substrate encourages faster, taller growth --so it may be
more desirable to have a lean substrate, depending on the size and height of the aquarium. As with
most all plants, this species benefits from the regular addition of nitrate, phosphate, potassium, and
micronutrients through the water column.
