Species Catalogue

Pogostemon yatabeanus is a vibrant stem plant native to Southeast Asia, prized for its distinctive narrow, lance-shaped leaves that display rich green coloration with reddish undersides under strong lighting. This plant exhibits a compact, bushy growth habit and is moderately fast-growing, making it an excellent choice for midground placement in planted aquariums.

Delicate pondweed with thin, translucent leaves that sway in current. Creates a very natural, river-like appearance. Spreads by runners.

Mermaid Weed is a unique stem plant that changes leaf shape depending on whether it is emersed or submersed — submerged leaves are deeply serrated and comb-like, while emersed leaves are broader and simple. Under high light the deeply lobed leaves turn intense shades of orange and red, making it a striking colour accent in Dutch and Nature Aquarium layouts.

Narrow-leaved Ludwigia that turns deep maroon-purple under high light. One of the most intensely coloured aquatic plants available. Slow-growing but spectacular. Requires CO2 and strong light to stay compact.

Heart-shaped floating liverwort with purple undersides. Larger than common duckweed and far easier to manage. Provides excellent shade.

Echinodorus Tenellus, the Pygmy Chain Sword, is a dwarf sword plant that forms a low, grass-like foreground carpet via prolific runners. Its narrow, strap-like leaves rarely exceed 10 cm, making it one of the few true sword plants suitable for foreground use. Under good lighting and CO2 it spreads rapidly; without CO2 growth is slower but still achievable.

Red-tinted form of the Pygmy Chain Sword. Develops reddish-brown tones under higher light. Low-maintenance carpeting plant.

Large, feathery aquatic moss with branching fronds reminiscent of tiny fern leaves. Creates a lush, jungle-like appearance on hardscape.

Ancient, grass-like plant with quill-shaped leaves growing from a corm. Creates a unique tuft-grass look. Thrives in nutrient-rich substrate.
