Ambulia ( Lymnophila )
!
Limnophila sessiliflora isa fast growing plant with beautiful light-green filamentous leaves which very much resembles the popular Cabomba species. In contrast to Cabomba, Limnophila sessiliflora does not require much light to grow andthus it can replace Cabomba in situations where this light demanding plant does not thrive well. Limnophila sessiliflora can take up a lot of inorganic nitrogen and phosphorus because it is fast growing, and the shoot apex which often needs to be cut can easily be replanted in the substrate. It develops adventitious shoots whenthe top is cut and becomes more bushy, though some of thenew shoots tend to creep along the bottom. Limnophila means 'swamp friend' and in Nature Limnophila sessiliflora grows in shallow water of lakes andalong stream and river banks. | | ||||||

Aquarium plant Egeria najans
!
Egeria densa is a good plant for beginners, and its rapid growth helps create a balance in the aquarium from the start. It can also help prevent algae because it absorbs a great number of nutrients from the water. The plant secretes antibiotic substances which can help prevent blue-green algae (a type of bacteria). The growth rate depends largely on the amount of light and nutrition available. Growth does not stop in unfavourable conditions, but the plant turns light in colour and the tendrils grow thin.
