Entity overview
Limnophila rugosa carries plant-library signals for slow-growth stem plant and midground placement.
Taxonomy data places it in genus Limnophila, family Plantaginaceae, order Lamiales, and major group Angiosperms.
For broader context and filtering, open the Aquarium Plant Library.
Care data interpretation
The care summary is limited to medium difficulty, low light demand, and recommended CO2.
The plant profile allows for emersed growth.
For this profile: Calculate suitable lighting.
Water parameter context
Available water ranges include temperature 22–28 °C, pH 4–7.5, KH 0–14 °dKH, and CO2 20–40 mg/L.
Aquarium tool: Estimate CO2 balance.
Nutrient range context
Dosing context starts with nitrate 10–50 mg/L, phosphate 0.1–3 mg/L, potassium 5–30 mg/L, and iron 0.01–0.5 mg/L.
Use with this data: Calculate nutrient dosing.
