Needlele Siskin Eleocharis acicularis is widespread all over the world. This graceful grass plant fits well in the foreground of larger aquariums or in the middle ground in nano tanks.
The needle cress forms runner shoots and thus gradually colonizes larger areas. Thus, the plant carpet becomes denser and denser. To propagate, simply separate some of these stolons and replant them.
When this emersed needle cress is first planted in the aquarium, it should be cut back to 1 cm stalk height. Divide the rootstock into smaller portions and place them in the substrate with some spacing (about 3-5 cm). A pair of tweezers helps tremendously with this job!
After a few days, the plants will sprout anew and the first stalks adapted to aquatic life will appear.
