Guppy Grass

Guppy Grass (Najas guadalupensis)

Guppy Grass is a hardy, fast-growing aquarium plant that is especially popular in breeding, fry, shrimp, and nano tank setups. It is easy to keep, grows quickly, and provides excellent natural cover for small fish and baby shrimp. Its soft, branching growth gives fish a place to hide, rest, and feel secure while also helping absorb excess nutrients from the water.

Guppy Grass is a great choice for hobbyists looking for an easy live plant that can add cover, support fry survival, and grow well in a wide range of freshwater aquariums.

Why Hobbyists Love Guppy Grass

• Fast growing and easy to keep
• Excellent cover for fry, shrimp, and small fish
• Great for breeding tanks and grow-out tanks
• Helps absorb excess nutrients from the water
• Useful in nano tanks, shrimp tanks, and community aquariums

Care & Growth

Guppy Grass is a very adaptable plant that does well in a wide range of freshwater aquariums. It is commonly kept floating, but it can also be allowed to grow loosely in the tank to create dense natural cover. Because it grows quickly, it may need occasional trimming to keep it from taking over smaller aquariums.

It does best in aquariums with:

• Stable water conditions
• Low to moderate flow
• Moderate lighting
• Regular trimming as needed
• Space to spread and branch out

Placement

Guppy Grass can be used in several ways depending on the aquarium setup.

Good uses include:

• Floating cover for fry and shrimp
• Dense plant cover in breeding tanks
• Natural shelter in grow-out tanks
• Soft cover in nano and community aquariums
