Juncus Repens is an easy-to-care carpeting plant which originates from USA. It can grow very fine in low-tech tanks.

In high-tech tanks, it can grow reddish colourations which sets this apart from many other foreground plants. 

If you receive this in a row of connected plants, please feel free to split them or you can plant it in a line if preferred (an example of line planting is in the one of the photos here where they are planted in a line between rocks). 

Based on Aquarzon's observations, the width of its leaves falls in between the width of dwarf hairgrass and Lilaeopsis/Blyxa/Pygmy Chain Sword. As such, this plant is the perfect foreground plant for a hobbyist who is looking for a carpeting plant which is slightly thicker than hairgrass but still thinner than Lilaeopsis/Blyxa/Pygmy Chain Sword. 

We observe the leaves to be thin at approximately 1-2mm width with spiky-end appearance and slight curls as it grows.  

Aquarzon recommends this plant as a supporting foreground/midground plant. For example, Micranthemum Monte Carlo (which is shorter) can be used as a primary foreground plant while Juncus Repens can be used as a supporting plant, to be placed around the perimeters of the Monte Carlo.

Alternatively, the Juncus Repens can be used as a standalone foreground/midground plant by positioning it to fill gap areas to create a natural effect. 

Aquarzon recommends this plant for hobbyists who need a carpeting/creeping plant while enjoying the appearance of something similar to Blyxa, Pgyma Chain Sword and Lilaeopsis but want something with thinner width, but not as thin as dwarf hairgrass.
