This listing: Staurogyne 'Porto Velho' Bunch
Description: Staurogyne 'Porto Velho' is a low-growing stem plant with narrow leaves and a spreading habit. It can form an attractive textured foreground under favorable conditions. Give it good light and room to grow, and allow it time to establish after planting.
Size Range: Bunch of ~3 stems, each about 4-6 inches tall.
Aquascaping Pro Tip: Plant small groups into the substrate with space between them. Trim taller shoots to encourage lateral growth; added CO2 supports a denser, more compact carpet.

• Because we ship live aquatic plants, availability and condition can change quickly. Every order undergoes a careful quality inspection before it leaves our facility to ensure you receive healthy, vibrant plants. If any item does not meet our standards at the time of shipment, we will not send it. Instead, you’ll be promptly notified and fully refunded for that item.
• Quarantine: Live plants need to be quarantined before introducing to any new system such as an aquarium, pond or water feature. Unwanted pests and hitchhikers such as snails, larvae, eggs, can be common and to be expected, i.e. unless the plant is lab grown in-vitro (tissue culture). For most submersible plants, an additional step of a 1:20 ratio bleach-to-water plant-dip (leaves only, never dip roots) is recommended; direct message us if you need more detailed instructions for this step, or to check if your plant requires this added step. If you want to be sure your plant is 100% sterilized against unwanted pests or algae, please perform a quarantine and/or bleach dip; always wash and rinse plants before introducing them to any new environment.

We do our best to select only the best specimens for shipment and take pride in our products and customer service. So please reach out if you have any questions! We're happy to help.
