Hygrophila Polysperma is a highly adaptable and fast-growing aquatic plant native to Southeast Asia. It’s well-known for its ease of care and vibrant green leaves that grow in dense clusters, creating a bushy and full appearance in any aquarium. This plant can thrive in a wide range of conditions, including varying levels of light, water hardness, and temperature, making it a fantastic option for beginner aquarists or anyone looking to fill space in their tank quickly.
Hygrophila Polysperma is also effective at absorbing excess nutrients, making it a good choice for maintaining water quality in your aquarium. It can grow submerged or even emersed, which gives you flexibility in designing your aquascape. Due to its fast growth rate, it will need regular pruning to prevent it from overtaking the tank, but its resilience and rapid growth make it an excellent plant for filling gaps and creating lush greenery.

- Carbonate Hardness (KH): 3 – 8 dKH
- General Hardness (GH): 4 – 12 dGH

- Substrate: Prefers nutrient-rich substrate but can also grow well in low-tech tanks with adequate light.
- Water pH Value: 6.0 – 7.5
- Fertilizer: Regular liquid fertiliser will promote optimal growth, but Hygrophila Polysperma is not particularly demanding in terms of nutrients.
- Care Input: Medium – Regular trimming and occasional nutrient supplementation will ensure healthy growth.
- Maintenance Difficulty: Easy to moderate – The fast growth requires regular trimming, but it’s otherwise very easy to care for.
- Light Provision: Moderate to high light (approx. 1 – 2 watt per litre) – More light will promote denser growth, but it can still thrive under moderate light levels.
