Hygrophila difformis from Asia is beautiful, easy and undemanding.
Stems becomes 20-30 cm tall and 6-12 cm wide. An excellent plant for beginners which can help create a balance in the aquarium from the start. Its rapid growth helps prevent algae because the plant absorbs a great number of nutrients from the water. The shortage of micronutrients leads to pale leaves, which may be an indication that the aquarium needs fertiliser.
Requires medium light. It is fast growing and therefore in need of routine pruning
