Description

Staurogyne repens is a light green, compact and hardy plant used in the foreground of an aquarium and originates from Brazil and Guyana. It has a bushy stature and grows 5-10cm in length. High lighting will encourage compact, creeping growth.
When planting in the aquarium, the longest upright shoots should be cut off and new, horizontally creeping shoots will soon start to form a dense carpet.
Low light causes Staurogyne Repens' growth to be more upright and much less side shoots will be formed.
