Staurogyne repens is a fresh green, compact and hardy plant for the foreground of the aquarium and it was found in River Rio Cristalino in the southern Amazonas. Its nearest relative in the aquaristic is Hygrophila but Staurogyne is different with its marked compact, low and bushy stature (5-10 cm) and small green leaves (each stem is 3.4 cm wide). When planting in the aquarium, the longest upright shoots should be cut off and new, horizontally creeping shoots will soon form from the plant basis and gradually colonize the gravel. At low light, the growth will be more upright and much less side shoots will be formed.
the plant looks really nice and really accents my tank

Gorgeous, foreground plant
I bought this culture cup and it was full to the brim with growth. I split the staurogyne repens into several portions and it was enough to add to 3 of my tanks. Fair price, great value!
