Lagenandra Thwaitesii can be grown both submerged or emersed conditions, as long as adequate time is given for the plant to adapt. Lagenandra Thwaitesii is a slow grower and does best with CO2 injection and high light. When planting, choose a quality aquarium soil and if using sand, consider using a fertilizing root tab to ensure the plant has adequate nutrition to grow.
Tissue culture plants are grown in vitro from a state of the art laboratory specialized in propagating aquatic plants. They provide the best option for those who want to ensure that absolutely zero unwanted pests are introduced into the aquarium. Remove tissue culture gel before planting. Simply wash the gel away or soak the plant in water and squeeze the gel off with your fingers.
