Description:
Bring a touch of charm and freshness to your aquarium with the Dwarf 4-Leaf Water Clover (Marsilea crenata) — a hardy and unique carpeting plant loved by aquascapers worldwide. Its delicate, clover-shaped leaves spread horizontally to form a dense, vibrant green carpet across the substrate, perfect for both nano tanks and larger aquariums.
This low-maintenance plant grows steadily under medium to high light conditions and does not require CO₂, although added CO₂ can enhance its density and growth rate. When newly introduced, older leaves may brown and melt back — a normal process as new, compact underwater leaves take their place.

Care Level: Easy
CO₂ Requirements: Optional (for faster, denser growth)
Growth Rate: Medium–Fast
Placement: Foreground (Submersed or Emersed)
Lighting: Medium–High
Color: Green
Max Size: 2+ inches per clover
Aquascaping Tip:
Use Marsilea crenata to create a soft, natural-looking carpet in the foreground of your aquascape. Trim regularly for a tighter, low-profile appearance, or let it grow freely for a wild, meadow-like look.
