Notes
A widespread stem plant in Asia. In the emersed stage it is small with densely leafed shoots. In the aquarium, the leaflets are much more pronounced and the colour is now light green. Limnophila sessiliflora is a good alternative to the more light-demanding Cabomba plant. As with many delicate stem plants, it should also be planted in a larger number of stems as a group. With good lighting, the tips of its shoots turn rusty brown.

A very decorative variety of Vallisneria spiralis with a twisted growth habit. It is also known commercially as ‘screw vallisneria’. With a height of 30-50 cm, the leaves remain significantly shorter than those of the stem form. It is also undemanding in cultivation, only the light intensity should be slightly higher than for the normal V. spiralis. The ‘Torta’ variety is suitable for the middle ground of small aquaria or the background of larger aquaria.

Advice
Recommended as an algae stopper for all new installations. Care instructions
The hornwort is a cosmopolitan plant that can be found in many bodies of water around the world. We found the free-floating stem plant in huge populations in a tributary of the Rio Miranda on the edge of the Pantanal in South America. The growth rate of the stems is enormous, so they have to be constantly pruned. Ceratophyllum is considered a "miracle weapon" against algae growth. The explanation is quite simple: the plant is a strong nutrient consumer and removes the algae's food source. The use of hornwort is recommended for every new aquarium.Wir sind sehr bemüht, dass unsere Pflanzen gesund und unbeschädigt bei Ihnen ankommen. Trotz grösster Sorgfalt, kann es vorkommen, dass Pflanzen durch den Postversand oder andere unvorgesehene Ereignisse, leicht beschädigt sind.

Staurogyne Repens has an interesting leaf structure and color. It is characterized by moderate growth and adult specimens reach a height of up to 10 cm. It is popular for arrangements in planted aquariums. It has a well-developed root system. 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..

Ammania gracilis – red stem plant for aquascapingAmmania gracilis – a decorative red stem plant for the midground and background. Ideal for aquascaping, with beautiful colouration when provided with light, CO₂ and a good supply of nutrients.Ammania gracilis is an attractive stem plant for freshwater aquariums and is particularly popular in aquascaping. The plant produces elongated, slightly wavy leaves which, depending on light and nutrient levels, can range in colour from greenish to coppery to a rich reddish hue. This allows it to add beautiful splashes of colour to the aquarium and makes it ideal as an eye-catching feature in the midground or background.Under good conditions, Ammania gracilis grows upright and can reach a height of around 20 to 50 cm. To develop an intense red colour, the plant requires medium to strong lighting, a good supply of nutrients and, ideally, CO₂ supplementation. It develops its full colour particularly well under strong light and with sufficient micronutrients.Ammania gracilis is suitable for planted aquariums, aquascapes and ‘ Holland ’ aquariums. Regular trimming keeps the plant compact and encourages bushier branching. The cut shoot tips can be replanted directly into the substrate.Your benefits at a glanceAttractive red stem plant for aquariumsIdeal for the midground and backgroundAdds lovely splashes of colour to the aquascapeGrowth height approx. 20–50 cmParticularly beautiful colouration under good lightingBenefits from CO₂ injection and nutrient fertilisationEasy to propagate by pruningHeight: approx. 20–50 cmInstructions for useBefore planting, carefully remove the pot, rockwool or transport material from the roots. If necessary, divide the plant into smaller sections and plant the individual stems in the substrate, leaving a little space between them. This ensures the shoots receive enough light and can develop well.Ammania gracilis prefers a bright spot in the aquarium. Moderate to strong lighting, as well as a regular supply of macro- and micronutrients, promote healthy growth and vibrant colouration. Adding CO₂ is recommended, as the plant grows significantly more vigorously and with more intense colour when supplied with sufficient CO₂.Regular pruning encourages bushier growth. The cut shoot tips can be replanted as cuttings.Zoo Roco TipTo develop a beautiful red to copper-coloured hue, Ammania gracilis requires plenty of light and a steady supply of nutrients. Do not plant the stems too densely, so that the lower leaves also receive sufficient light. When combined with light-green plants, this creates a particularly beautiful colour contrast in the aquarium.

Micranthemum umbrosum
Micranthemum Umbrosum is a light green stem plant with small round leaves. Depending on how it is pruned, it is suitable for both the foreground and background of the aquarium. Difficulty of cultivation: easy Light requirement: medium, to high CO₂ requirement: medium Height of the adult plant: 20 cm Growth: fast Temperature: 22-26 °C Placement in the aquarium: Second level Origin: North and Central America Cup diameter: 6 cm Micranthemum Umbrosum (Round-leaved meadowfoam) is a naturally occurring plant in North and Central America. It grows both in water and in marshy areas. It is prized by aquarists for its unique appearance.
The plant forms long stems with paired, alternate, small, round, light green leaves. It has a fairly well developed root system. It needs regular pruning and is easy to shape into a desired form. It is propagated vegetatively by cutting off the shoot tips and planting them in the ground.
It likes water with a hardness of 2-12°N, a pH of 5.5-7.7 and a temperature of 24-26°C. It is sensitive to trypaflavin and can be damaged by snails. It has fairly high light requirements. With insufficient light, it pulls upward, and distinct gaps can be seen between the leaves. With sufficient light, it forms dense clumps that are pleasing to the aquarist's eye.Micranthemum umbrosum is usually placed in the background of the aquarium, but it also looks good in the foreground when cut short. It does not require absolute CO₂ fertilization, but grows much faster in its presence. When growing this plant, pay special attention to the proper concentration of iron in the aquarium water..
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 set them at intervals of 1 to 2 cm.
Limnophila aromaticaLimnophila Aromatica (fragrant limnophilia) is a beautiful plant for the second or third level. It turns purple under intense light.Difficulty of cultivation: moderate Light requirement: medium CO₂ requirement: medium Adult plant height: up to 50 cm Growth: moderate Temperature: 22-28°C Placement in aquarium: second or third level Origin: Asia Cup diameter: 6 cm Limnophila Aromatica (fragrant Limnophila, rice paddy weed) is a plant that has earned a place in aquariums around the world due to its unique appearance and leaf color. It is native to Asia, where it usually grows in rice paddies or swamps near water. It does well after the end of the rainy season in a dry place in a still moist, sandy soil. At high temperatures, the plant flowers, forms fruit, and then dies. Traditionally used as a spice, especially in Vietnamese cuisine. Its flavor is reminiscent of cumin and lemon. Currently, the plant can also be found in America and Australia.Limnophilia Aromatica is a stalk plant that produces lance-shaped leaves with serrated edges. Their color depends on the intensity of light. If the plant has little access to light, its leaves are green. If the light is strong, the entire top of the plant is intense red and the leaves are purple on the underside.
In aquariums, plant it in the second or third level, leaving a distance of 1.5 cm between cuttings. It grows quite fast, its optimal pH is 6-7. It tolerates temperatures between 15 and 30 °C, but it is better to avoid extreme temperatures and keep it between 22 and 28 °C. In aquariums it is propagated by cutting and planting young plants that form on the stems or from the tips. The plant does not require absolute CO₂ fertilization, but grows much faster with CO₂ addition.
To achieve the desired intense red-purple color of the leaves, the plant must be strongly illuminated. In addition, attention must be paid to the correct water parameters in the aquarium, especially the optimal iron, nitrate and phosphate content, so that the plant can absorb the nutrients from the water column. Due to its strongly developed root system, the plant grows best in active media.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 set them at intervals of 1 to 2 cm.

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.

Limnophila sessiliflora
An easy to grow stem plant, ideal for the background of the aquarium. It is characterized by its beautiful green coloration and rapid growth.Difficulty of growing: easyLight requirements: mediumCO₂ requirements: mediumGrown plant height: up to 60 cmGrowth: fastTemperature: 25-30°CPlacement in aquarium: Third levelOrigin: Asia6 cm cup diameterLimnophila Sessiliflora is an easy to grow stem plant, perfect for the third level of a tank. Native to Asia, the plant is characterized by pinnate leavesof light green color. They grow in groups of 6-9 leaves around the stem. Limnophila sessiliflora looks best incompact groups. Because of its structure, it makes an excellent hiding place for juvenile fish. The advantage of this plant is that it is easy to grow. It requires only moderate light, about 0.5 W/l. However, the plant adapts to the light conditions. In stronger light, the stems become thicker, the green color more bright and the structure more compact. In weaker light, the stems may elongate between the leaf nodes, which affects the appearance of the plant.
It can be successfully grown without CO₂ supply. It grows up to 60 cm tall, which makes it a good choice for planting the third level of the tank. Its intense growth helps the aquarium look quickly overgrown. The growing stems can be cut at any point and then replanted in the substrate. In this way, we can quickly compact the clumps. The prerequisite for rapid growth of this plant is a constant temperature of 25-30°C. Although Limnophila Sessiliflora tolerates short-term temperature fluctuations well, it grows fastest at a constant temperature. Because of its growth rate, additional fertilization of the tank with iron- and potassium-rich fertilizer is recommended.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 3-4 cm lumps and then place them in the substrate..

Notes
An attractive novelty from Brazil is the bear’s claw family plant Staurogyne repens. Its appearance is somewhat reminiscent of a “miniature Hygrophila”, but it is an excellent plant for the foreground. It grows very slowly, in good conditions even creeping over the substrate. Staurogyne needs intense light and a good supply of nutrients above the substrate. If the shoot tips are pruned regularly, the plant develops many new side shoots, resulting in a very beautiful, dense plant population. In “aquascaping”, this beauty can be excellently combined with Hemianthus callitrichoides.

This new variety has only recently been correctly identified – its previous name H. spec. Araguaia is no longer valid. The plant is small in stature and forms narrow, reddish-brown leaves underwater. In some cases, it even creeps over the substrate. When cultivated emersed, it often shows small blue-violet flowers. With good lighting and good CO2 supply, the plants grow significantly better. The new Hygrophila appears very delicate and really comes into its own only in a larger group. In the Nano Cube, however, just a few stems are enough for a splash of colour.
