Listing is for loose plants/stems. Ludwigia repens is a beautiful and fast-growing stem plant popular for its vibrant red and green foliage that adds eye-catching contrast to any planted aquarium. This versatile species is ideal for midground or background placement, where it creates height, movement, and colour in both low-tech and high-tech aquascapes. Thriving in low to medium lighting, Ludwigia repens is easy to care for and does not require CO₂, though CO₂ and nutrient supplementation will enhance its red tones and denser growth. Its stems grow upright and can reach heights of 20–40 cm, making it suitable for tanks of all sizes. Ludwigia repens is easily propagated by trimming and replanting cuttings, allowing aquarists to fill space quickly or maintain a neat scape. It also helps improve water quality by absorbing excess nutrients, reducing algae growth, and providing shelter for shrimp and fry.
