20 rooted pieces of dwarf sag around 2-3inches

Kept in an indoor 20 gallon long that may come with:
Pond Snail + (eggs)
Ramshorn Snail + (eggs)

Pros:

  • Rooted foreground to midground plant, tends to form a grass-like carpet over time
  • Usually spreads by runners once established
  • Often does okay in low to moderate light without CO2 in many setups
  • Tolerates a fairly wide range of parameters for a carpeting-type plant
  • Can help take up nutrients from substrate
  • Shorter height can work for foreground without frequent trimming for some tanks

Cons:

  • Initial melt after planting or shipping is fairly common
  • Can grow taller than expected - sometimes 4-6"+ depending on light/nutrients, not always stays short
  • Runners can spread into unwanted areas
  • Growth can be slow to start, then pick up later
  • Can collect algae on leaves if light is high and nutrients are low
  • May need decent substrate to really fill in
