Description
Tonina fluviatilis is a delicate, eye-catching stem plant prized by aquascapers for its fresh, star-like whorls of fine green leaves. As a mid-ground to background plant, Tonina fluviatilis adds fine texture and a soft, airy look that contrasts beautifully with broad-leaved plants and hardscape.
Tonina fluviatilis does best in soft, slightly acidic water with good lighting, steady nutrients and CO₂, so it rewards the aquascaper who enjoys a gentle challenge and wants a truly special specimen. Plant the stems a couple of centimetres apart so each one has room to bush out, and trim and replant the healthy tops to keep Tonina fluviatilis compact and full.
With the right care, Tonina fluviatilis forms a gorgeous, cloud-like group that becomes a real centrepiece in a nature-style or Dutch-style planted tank.
