Cryptocoryne Tropica is a form of the popular cryptocoryne, Crypt Wendtii. This popular Crypt will display long, green/orange/bronze crinkled leaves when grown submerged. Photos show difference between submerged and emersed grown plants. Like other Crypts, it grows at a moderate rate and can be grown both submerged and emerged. Care is simple for cryptocoryne and is comparable to other low-light aquatic plant species such as Anubias, Bucephalandra and more.
Crypts propagate through runners, which can be cut and replanted into the substrate if desired. For good coverage, plant individual stems about one inch apart. Water trumpets can also be planted in bunches as long as all the roots have exposure to nutrients from the substrate.

Once you buy the tissue cultured plant, make sure to maintain water parameters within the prescribed range for its best growth. Light and other requirements: Hydrocotyle Tripartita "Honda" is an easy to grow plant. It doesn't have any high or peculiar demand. Instead, medium intensity light and medium carbon dioxide supply will fulfil its demand. You can occasionally provide fertilizers to the plant to get greener flora and dense growth. With the right parameters, Hydrocotyle Tripartita "Honda" attains good compact growth and reaches 5-10 cm in height. The intense green leaves on vertical stems look too good and compliment other aquarium plants as well. pH Requirements: The plant can thrive well under the pH requirements ranging between 5.5-8.0.

The gel may bring slight changes in the water parameters. Therefore, make sure it is completely removed from the plant before burying in the substrate. | Echinodorus tenellus is a carpeting aquarium plant used by aquarists worldwide. Echinodorus tenellus has a striking resemblance to the Hairgrass plant but differs in the texture and size of the leaf. Also commonly called pygmy or dwarf chain grass, this fast-growing plant is native to regions of South, Central and North America. Highly recommended as a foreground and mid-ground plant due to it’s stunted growth, Echinodorus tenellus is easy to grow and has very little or no demands for optimum growth. With moderate levels of carbon dioxide, sunlight and a nutrient rich substrate, Echinodorus will grow in no time. In the natural habitat, this plant grows in submerged condition. Appearance: The leaves of Echinodorus tenellus can grow as much as 5 to 10 cms long and have a feather-like appearance. Although it bears resemblance to hairgrass plant, the leaves of E.tenellus are coarser, larger and thicker which lends a rugged natural look to the aquarium. The rosette leaves have a rich green hue when subjected to optimum lighting conditions. Otherwise, they tend to become reddish brown in color. Hard/Soft plant: Hard plant Ideal water temperature conditions: Echinodorus tenellus prefers a wide range of tropical temperatures between 19 and 30 degree Celsius. Ideal lighting conditions: Echinodorus tenellus can tolerate moderate to bright lighting requirements for optimum growth. Optimum water pH levels: Echinodorus tenellus thrives in water having pH levels range between 5 and 7.5. Uses and Advantages: 1) Echindorus tenellus is a versatile aquatic plant. It is ideal as a carpeting plant for medium to large size aquariums and as a background plant in nano aquariums where carpeting plants are used in the foreground. 2) When planted between stones, it creates a softer tank environment. Otherwise, the dense foliage gives a rugged natural look to the aquarium. 3) The leaves of Echinodus tenellus serves as a hiding place for small fishes and fry. They provide a nesting place for spawning fishes. Did you know? Echinodorus tenellus sends out runners and plantlets appear along with their length. Once roots appear, the plantlets can be snipped and replanted in the substrate. New plants will develop in no time. | Hydrocotyle Tripartita "Honda" is a beautiful variant of Hydrocotyle Tripartita that originates from South-East Asia.

This is one of the smallest aquatic plants available and just the right flora for creating that lush foreground seen in many stunning aquascapes. When grown in Iwagumi layouts, the vast fields of green can have a captivating effect on any audience. This plant can grow submerged or emersed in dry start aquariums and Wabi Kusa. Because this plant is small with tiny roots, it can prove difficult to keep planted into the substrate. In this case, dry start can help by allowing time for the roots to anchor into the substrate before flooding the tank. Although some have had success growing HC in smaller tanks using liquid carbon such as Excel, this species requires Co2 injection to truly thrive. It can be quite difficult to grow lush, thick carpets for sustained periods of time without Co2, and fertilization is recommended. To maintain a nice foreground Family Name: Scrophulariaceae Origin: North America, Cuba Height: 1-2” pH: 6-7.5 Care: Medium to Difficult Light: Medium to High Co2: Required Propagation: Cut new growth along with roots Growth rate: Moderate to Fast | Cryptocoryne parva fromac Sri Lanka is the smallest of all Cryptocorynes (only 3-6 cm tall and a roset less than 5-8 cm wide). It is one of the few species that does not significantly change its leaf shape and colour depending on cultivation conditions. It needs more light than most other Cryptocorynes because it almost loses its leaf plate under water. So, it must never be overshadowed by other plants. Known for its slow growth, but Nutrition Capsules in the bottom layer will enhance the development. Individual plants should be planted a few centimetres apart, and after about six months they will form a cohesive low group of plants.
