Common Name: Bucephalandra Sintang Green
Bucephalandra Sintang Green is a small-leafed Buce specimen in the Bucephalandra family. This particular variation features bright green leaves that produce a subtle sheen when lit by aquarium LEDs. Its growth is relatively compact and has the potential to be a stunning midground aquarium plant when taken care of properly. Like other Bucephalandra pants, Buce Sintang is epiphytic and does best when attached to porous surfaces like driftwood or stone. Buce plants are very versatile and can be grown in both submerged or emersed settings, making them great for planted tanks, terrariums and vivariums.
Notes:
- Bucephalandra is an epiphytic aquarium plant so it can be attached to aquarium hardscape.
- Do not plant Bucephalandra in substrate and cover the rhizome. This will cause it to melt and rot.
- Bucephalandra’s final size, coloration and growth rate are dependent upon the condition of the aquarium Photos are a representation of what you will receive and may vary.
- Tissue culture plants are grown in vitro from a state of the art laboratory specialized in propagating aquatic plants. They provide the best option for those who want to ensure that absolutely zero unwanted pests are introduced into the aquarium.
- Remove tissue culture gel before planting. Simply wash the gel away or soak the plant in water and squeeze the gel off with your fingers.
- Do not make drastic changes to the aquarium. Unstable parameters will result in melt and rotting of the aquarium plant.
