Staurogyne Porto Velho is a popular aquarium plant that provides unique ground coverage. It can be grown in both submerged aquarium conditions or emersed in paludarium or terrarium enclosures. When grown in the aquarium, Staurogyne Porto Velho produces narrower leaves that are primarily green in color with potential for a slight purplish sheen depending on the conditions provided.

Staurogyne Porto Velho should be provided with nutrient-dense soil, CO2 injection and moderate lighting to growth healthily in the aquarium. This particular species requires slightly more attention and care when compared to the popular midground plant Staurogyne Repens and is best for aquarium hobbyists who have established tanks and knowledge in growing aquarium plants. Porto Velho is a moderate grower and will require periodic maintenance once the plant is established.
