Ammannia pedicellata is an attractive stem plant with long, yellow-green leaves. This plant is fast growing and relatively undemanding, making it a popular choice for aquarists of all skill levels.

This plant is known for its soft-looking, flowing leaves and its bushy growth habit. In lower light conditions this plant will grow with green leaves on an orange stem, while under high light the leaves become more yellow coloured.

Caring for Ammannia pedicellata is relatively straightforward. It can thrive in a wide range of water parameters, growing best in temperatures between 20°C and 28°C. While it will grow in moderate light, it truly shines under high lighting conditions, where its colours become more vibrant. Providing a nutrient-rich substrate and regular fertilisation is important, as this species can become stunted in nutrient-poor water. This plant also appreciates the addition of CO2, where it will grow leaves to about 5cm long.

Overall, Ammannia pedicellata is a beautiful and easy-to-care-for plant that is sure to bring a pop of colour to any aquarium. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced aquarist, this plant is a great choice for a healthy and vibrant planted tank.
