A plant from Australia that appeals to aquarists around the world
Native to Australia, Hydrocotyle tripartita Mini is a cultivated variety that has won over aquarists thanks to its decorative leaves and creeping growth. In the wild, it is found in humid forests and riverbanks, where it grows both submerged and emerged. Its small clover-like appearance is even more pronounced than that of Marsilea, making it a real favorite for creating natural and dynamic aquatic landscapes.
It is distinguished by its rapid growth and its ability to form large, dense mats at ground level. Although compact, it can grow up to 10 cm if the light is insufficient. To avoid this, it can be easily "trained" by keeping it at ground level, by re-sinking its stems into aquarium sand .
Ideal growing conditions for Hydrocotyle tripartita Mini
This plant loves light! To maintain its lush shape and dense leaves, intense lighting is recommended. Although it can survive in lower light conditions, it will tend to rise towards the surface. A good CO2 system and nutrient supply can boost its growth, but are not essential. This is precisely what makes it so accessible, even for beginners.
It tolerates a wide range of parameters: temperature between 18 and 28°C, pH from 5 to 8, soft to hard water. It is preferably placed in the foreground, but it can also be attached to decorative elements for a more natural look. Its maintenance is simplified by its excellent ability to produce runners, which facilitates its propagation. A little regular cleaning and a good filter are enough to keep it in good shape.
Planting and maintenance of the in vitro plant
The in vitro version of Hydrocotyle tripartita Mini is particularly healthy: free of algae, pests, and unwanted snails. To plant it, simply remove the plant from its pot, remove the nutrient gel, and then divide it into 3 to 6 small portions to distribute in the soil. Thanks to its rapid lateral growth, it will quickly colonize the area and create a uniform green carpet . It can also be used as a decorative element on a nutrient substrate to add relief to a natural hardscape.
It coexists very well with snails, which appreciate its tender leaves, without devouring it. A little extra if you are looking for a plant to integrate into an aquarium with a balanced ecosystem. However, be careful to monitor its development: in strong light, it can become a little too invasive! A little regular pruning helps maintain a clean and aesthetic appearance.
Easy propagation for aquascaping enthusiasts
You don't need to be a botanist to propagate Hydrocotyle tripartita Mini. It naturally produces lateral shoots that can be easily transplanted. With a little patience, you can cover an entire tank with just a few sprigs. As for reproduction by flowers or seeds, it remains rare in aquariums, but its small emerged umbels can sometimes appear in well-established tanks.
The ideal companion for a natural aquarium
With its clover-like appearance, rapid growth, and ability to adapt to different aquarium types, this plant is a must-have. Easy to grow, pretty to look at, and quick to install, the Hydrocotyle tripartita Mini is well worth its place in any planted aquarium. It's even perfect for accompanying a good filter cleaning or a new tank setup. If you're looking for a decorative, affordable, and effective lawn, look no further!
