Lysimachia nummularia · Aurea

A golden form of creeping Jenny with rounded leaves that provide bright contrast in the planted aquarium.

Planting and placement

Plant individual stems with space between them so light reaches the lower leaves. Remove damaged buried foliage and avoid crushing the stems. Trim tops as the group grows, and replant healthy cuttings where suitable to build a fuller stand.

Light and nutrition

Moderate aquarium lighting and balanced nutrition support steady growth. Added carbon dioxide can improve density and growth, but requirements depend on the plant and desired result. Rooted plants benefit from appropriate substrate nutrition; red tones often become stronger under well-balanced brighter conditions.

Growth and maintenance

Use in a freshwater aquarium and maintain regular water changes and gentle circulation around the planting. Plants grown above water may shed older leaves while producing submerged growth; remove decaying material and allow time to settle. Mature height and coloration vary with light, nutrients, pruning, and conditions. Rinse and inspect plants before introduction, remove packaging and growing material carefully, and consider separate observation where sensitive shrimp or pest exclusion are priorities.
