Staurogyne repens Tissue Culture – Hardy, Low-Growing Foreground Plant
Staurogyne repens is a popular foreground aquarium plant known for its compact, bushy growth and vibrant green leaves. The tissue culture version ensures a pest-free, algae-free, and snail-free start, making it ideal for shrimp tanks, nano aquariums, and high-tech planted setups.
Native to Brazil, Staurogyne repens grows along shallow riverbanks in tropical freshwater environments. In aquariums, it spreads horizontally to form dense green mats, making it an excellent foreground carpet or low midground bush.
Lighting: Medium to high light promotes compact growth and vibrant green color.
CO₂ & Nutrients: Benefits from CO₂ supplementation and nutrient-rich substrate for optimal density.
Placement: Ideal for foreground or low midground; plant in clusters to encourage horizontal spread.
Water Conditions: Thrives in 68–82°F (20–28°C), pH 6.0–7.5, soft to moderately hard water.
Maintenance: Trim regularly to maintain compactness and promote spreading runners.
Pest-, algae-, and snail-free, safe for sensitive tanks and shrimp setups.
Lab-grown under sterile conditions for maximum plant health.
Ships in sealed nutrient gel cups — rinse and plant directly.
No quarantine required before introduction to the aquarium.
Forms dense foreground or low midground coverage.
Hardy and beginner-friendly, suitable for most freshwater aquariums.
Shrimp-safe and adds natural texture to aquascapes.
Enhances visual depth and aesthetic appeal in planted tanks.
