Lilaeopsis macloviana - This Lilaeopsis species has been known in our hobby since the 1980s. Lilaeopsis macloviana (Gandoger) is significantly taller than most other species of Lilaeopsis and it also differs in the way that it willingly forms runners that spread over the bottom in the aquarium. From these runners vertical shoots are formed and each shoot may reach a height of 35-50 cm depending on growth conditions.

This species of Lilaeopsis requires less light and grows a good deal higher than the other Lilaeopsis species. Runners from L. macloviana creep across the bottom, and vertical branches grow up from the runners. Its habit is similar to Vallisneria, and it is fast growing and easy to care for. L. macloviana grows in a wide variety of habitats, from the Pampas in the Andes where it was found to river mouths and brackish beach meadows, indicating how adaptable this plant is. Thus it tolerates low salt concentrations in a brackish water aquarium.
