Hygrophila Lancea Chai – Pink-Toned Mutation of Araguaia (Tissue Culture Pot)

Hygrophila Lancea Chai – Delicate Pink Mutation with High Demand Profile

Hygrophila sp. Chai is a specialty plant originating from Singapore—a rare mutation of Hygrophila araguaia distinguished by its vibrant pink coloration and delicate structure.

It thrives only under dedicated aquascaping conditions: high-intensity lighting, strong CO₂ supplementation, soft water with gentle flow, and ultra-clean substrates. Any drop in water quality or nutrient imbalance can cause leaf melt or algae outbreaks.

The plant grows as a slow-creeping stem along the bottom of the tank and pairs well with minimalistic or Iwagumi aquascapes where pink contrast is desired.

Care Guidelines:

• Use strong lighting (over 60 PAR)
• Inject CO₂ and maintain low phosphate fluctuations
• Provide consistent micronutrient dosing
• Avoid rough water movement or sudden parameter changes
