Hygrophila corymbosa

Hygrophila corymbosa is an aquatic plant commonly used in aquariums. It belongs to the Acanthaceae family and is from India and Southeast Asia. It is a fast growing plant that can reach up to 30 cm high and produces many green -shaped green leaves. The hygrophila corymbosa likes moderate to strong lighting and a nutritious soil, and can be propagated by cutting its stems and enraged them in the substrate. It can help maintain clean and clear water in the aquarium by holding waste and providing a habitat for beneficial bacteria. However, it can also become invasive if it is not maintained by letting many dead leaves float in the aquarium.
