Hygrophila Difformis - ROOTED - Live Aquarium Aquatic Plants Fish Tank

Hygrophila Difformis 'Water Wisteria'

Hygrophila Difformis 'Water Wisteria' is bushy in apperance and can be used as a background plant in fish tanks, but also it can be used in the foreground or midground if you want to cut it shorter. As a fast-growing plant, it is often used to consume nitrogen waste compounds in the water and outcompete algae growth.

Wisteria produces submersed leaves that look drastically different from their emersed growth, which can lead to a lot of confusion, but they are in fact the same species that changes its leaf appearance to adapt to different environments. 

When grown underwater, wisteria has bright green, feathery fronds that can reach 4 inches (10 cm) across. 

Emersed-grown plants (or plants grown above the water surface) generally have thicker stems that are built to withstand gravity and broader leaves that can absorb carbon dioxide directly from the air.

Its bushy appearance can be used to add an interesting visual texture to planted tanks and is perfect for hiding fish fry or shrimp.
