Staurogyne repens is a light green compact strong plant for the aquarium foreground originating from Rio Cristalino in Brazil. It can be used as a ground-covering plant and will form low bushes. Forms well through trimming. Looks very nice between rocks and stones. Propagate by cutting the top growth and re-plant them into the substrate. The lateral shoots that form in this case will grow more or less horizontally along the substrate.
