Hygrophila Polysperma

Your Ad Here


Hygrophila Polysperma is a hardy a type of aquatic plant. diversity of this kind of plant is mainly on freshwater streams and rivers. Usually on partially calm waters. Polyspermas looks good on an aquarium set-up specially when put in the center as the main attraction on a set-up. I had trouble cultivating these plants once, but on continuos experience and ideas of some experienced aquarists, i had observed much of these plants requirements.



I had tried cultivating polysperma for some time, but as of now there have been few that was left of my plants, I had observed that when the tip of the leaves reaches the surface of the water, the leaves turns red. I guess too much light might change the color of the plant but for a positive effect. Introducing algae eaters might lower the risk of algaes ending up on the leaves of these plants.


A Mango tree flower is an excellent fertilizer, if you are cultivating polysperma outdoors, then you could try putting mango flowers on the pond. After a few days, the pond will smell bad.. But it will have a positive effect on the plants..Try It!
