Schismatoglottis Prietoi, an aquatic plant native to the Philippines, is a unique addition to the aquascaping world. It belongs to the family Araceae and is notable for its ability to thrive in fully aquatic environments, a rare trait within its genus. This small, colonial plant grows only up to 8 cm tall, featuring pale green to green, oblong to elliptical leaves with a smooth texture, sharply pointed tips, and broadly wavy edges.

Ideal for aquariums, Schismatoglottis Prietoi is known for its ease of care and adaptability to various water conditions. It prefers medium to low lighting and can flourish in temperatures ranging from 20 to 28°C. The plant's pH tolerance spans from 6.5 to 7.5, accommodating both soft and hard water types. While CO2 injection can promote faster growth, it's not a necessity for this plant.

Schismatoglottis Prietoi is particularly suited for smaller aquarium setups like Nano Cubes due to its compact growth pattern. It can be planted directly into the substrate or attached to hardscape materials like rocks and driftwood. This versatility, combined with its unique appearance and easy propagation through rhizomes, makes Schismatoglottis Prietoi a valuable plant for both beginner and experienced aquarists.

This species is a testament to the diversity and beauty of aquatic plants, offering a distinct look compared to more common aquarium plants like Anubias. It's a perfect choice for aquarists looking to create a natural, riverbed-like environment in their tanks.

    Receive in bag instead of cup. About 8 plants in bag. The plants were already 4-5 inches high. Placed plants in a bowl of warm water and the gel melting/falling off after 5 minutes. Plants were easy to separate. Roots were about a half inch long. Very easy to plant.
