Tropica Bucephalandra pygmaea 'Wavy Green' (Potted)
In nature, Bucephalandra usually grows on rocks or wood in rivers and streams - much like Anubias, which they resemble regarding use and care in the aquarium. Bucephalandra 'Wavy Green' is an easy, slow-growing plant that prefers lower light levels. A nice, dense appearance is ensured by the willingness to branch, even without trimming. The green leaves are 2 cm wide and 5 cm long with wavy edges. The rhizome must not be covered when planting; this will cause the plant to rot and die.
Care requirements: Difficulty: Easy (per Tropica). Light demand: Low. CO2 demand: Low; grows well without added CO2. Growth rate: Slow. Placement: Midground to background, attached to rocks or driftwood. Height in tank: 5-10+ cm. Supplied as a plant in a 5 cm pot.
