Potted Plant – Glossostigma Elatinoides
Bring professional aquascaping style into your aquarium with Glossostigma elatinoides, one of the most popular and iconic carpeting plants worldwide. Its small, bright green leaves grow close to the substrate, forming a dense, vibrant carpet that gives aquascapes a clean and polished look.
Glossostigma thrives under strong lighting and with CO₂ injection, where it spreads quickly and forms a lush, compact lawn. In lower-light or low-tech setups, it may grow taller and less dense, making trimming and good maintenance important to keep its low profile.
