STAUROGYNE REPENS – Live Potted Foreground Aquarium Plant in Breathable Blister Packaging
Staurogyne repens is a live potted aquarium plant, packaged in a practical breathable blister ideal for easy transport and optimal plant preservation. Known for its low, compact, and bushy growth, it is perfect for creating dense green carpets or foreground clusters in freshwater aquariums. Native to the Rio Cristalino in southern Amazonia, this plant features small, bright green leaves and sturdy stems about 3–4 cm wide, growing to a modest height of 5–10 cm.
Closely related to Hygrophila, Staurogyne repens stands out with its compact form and creeping habit. When planting in the aquarium, it’s recommended to trim the longer vertical shoots. This encourages new horizontal runners to sprout from the base and gradually spread across the substrate, forming a natural and well-anchored coverage. Easy to grow and suitable for all tank types, it's especially ideal for natural aquascapes and detailed layouts.
