Ludwigia helminthorrhiza
Entity overview
The profile uses floating growth behavior alongside floating placement tags.
For entity matching, taxonomy contributes genus Ludwigia, family Onagraceae, order Myrtales, and major group Angiosperms.
For broader context and filtering, open the Aquarium Plant Library.
Water parameter context
For water matching, the ranges are temperature 25–30 °C, pH 6–7.5, KH 4–15 °dKH, and CO2 0–40 mg/L.
Planning tool: Estimate CO2 balance.
Nutrient range context
Nutrient-related values in this profile include nitrate 10–50 mg/L, phosphate 0.1–3 mg/L, potassium 5–30 mg/L, and iron 0.01–0.5 mg/L.

Care data interpretation
For aquarium planning, care values include difficult difficulty, low light demand, and recommended CO2.
Emersed growth appears as a supported profile value.
Useful next step: Calculate suitable lighting.
