This ornamental aquarium plant is native to the east coast of North America. There, the Hemianthus species grows on stony or muddy substrate along river courses. Its loose, upright growth and bright, light green colour give a fresh, spring-like impression. The plant can be easily shortened with the help of sharp scissors. After pruning, many new side shoots sprout and the plant looks more compact and dense. The combination of light green Hemianthus with red-leaved species such as Alternanthera is very rich in contrast.

It originates from South America, more precisely from the southern Amazon. In the wild it was discovered in the Rio Cristalino river. The plant is characterized by low light requirements. In good light, it does not grow too tall and forms a dense lawn. Less light is not a problem for it, but then it grows more slowly. The dosage of carbon dioxide and feeding with micro and macronutrient fertilizers ensure intensive growth. Staurogyne Repens absorbs nutrients mainly through its root system and therefore prefers a fertile substrate. Advanced aquarists, however, can keep this species attached to ornaments or decorations. It is enough to use a suitable adhesive. In this case, care must be taken to provide fertilizers to the water column. The best growth results are obtained when the plant is planted in an active substrate. Under good conditions, the plant grows very quickly. It does not require complicated care. All you need to pay attention to is regular pruning using sharp scissors with curved blades. Frequent pruning will help Staurogyne Repens become denser and grow. After pruning, it spreads and forms new stems with leaves. Therefore, it can also be used to create an interesting foreground. Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then place them at intervals between 3 - 4 cm..

Cut stems can be planted in the substrate to compact the pile. Additional fertilization with preparations containing iron has an excellent effect. Low maintenance and slow growth rate means that the plant does not require special attention from the aquarist. Due to its delicate root system, it thrives best in a fine substrate with the addition of peat balls or substrate.The optimum temperature is 24-25 oC. A short-term drop in temperature does not affect the condition of the plant. If the temperature is too high, the growth of the plant is often stunted and the stem may die.Planting: The plant must be removed from the cup and thoroughly rinsed from the gel under running water. This is best done by placing the plant in a container of lukewarm water. Most of the gel will then fall off by itself. Divide the contents of the cup into 1-2 cm lumps and then place them at a small distance on the selected items.

Softer water with a good CO2 supply promotes optimum growth. In combination with other grass-like plants, decorative meadow landscapes can be created. But the creeping rush also cuts a fine figure as a "filler plant" between stones. With strong lighting and a good supply of micronutrients, the shoots can also turn slightly reddish in colour.
