Guppy Grass (Najas guadalupensis) is a fast-growing and undemanding aquatic plant that is native to Central and South America. It is a popular choice for aquariums, especially for breeding tanks as it provides excellent hiding spots for fry.
The plant has long, slender stems with small leaves that grow in whorls. Its bright green coloration and rapid growth make it an attractive and useful addition to any tank. It also helps to oxygenate the water, removing excess nutrients and improving the overall health of the aquatic environment.
Guppy Grass can be propagated easily by cutting the stems and replanting them. It prefers bright lighting and can tolerate a wide range of water conditions, making it suitable for both beginner and experienced aquarists.
