How to: This unusually shaped aquarium plant does well in bright light and looks best when kept in well-spaced groups of four or five stems. The leave shape is dictated by aquarium temperature; at lower temperatures the leaves are thicker and smaller, at higher temperatures they are larger and more divided. The leaves are large - up to 4 in (10cm) long - so adequate space is a must. If the plants received too little light, the lower leaves may drop off and the spacing between the leaves increases.
