Eusteralis stellata Amano plant

#1 Eusteralis stellata Amano plant

Eusteralis stellata is a very beautiful aquarium plant which differs from all other aquatic plants. The 10-cm long narrow leaves are placed around the stem much like spokes in a wheel and the lower leaf side is heavily violet at optimum growth conditions. However, it is quite difficult to culture and requires very high light, soft water and CO2 enrichment of the water to thrive. Eusteralis stellata is a brilliant indicator for micronutrient,especially iron. If the aquarium is short of iron, the leaves will turn light green to yellowish but a few days after iron addition the colour will reappear on new leaves. Occasionally, the plant suddenly stops growing but after a while adventitious shoots will normally develop and the plant resumes growth.

Cabomba Green

ab Green Cabomba

A very popular aquarium plant owing to its beautiful foliage. The least demanding of the Cabomba species, but still causes problems in poorly lit aquariums. If there is not sufficient light, try Limnophila sessiliflora, which requires less light. Most decorative when planted in groups. Eaten locally as a vegetable.
