Dennerle Cryptocoryne Usteriana Live Aquarium Plant - Easy Care Aquatic Plant for Freshwater Fish Tanks | Perfect for Aquascaping, Shrimp Tanks & Planted Aquariums

Product Description

• Cryptocoryne usteriana is an impressive plant from the Philippines.
• Unlike many other Cryptocoryne species, it grows permanently under water and is therefore not suitable for emersed cultivation in the greenhouse.
• For this reason it is very rarely found commercially.
• The bullate leaves are up to 70 cm long and the leaves are bright mid-green with a reddish underside.
• With medium lighting, Cryptocoryne usteriana grows best in hard, alkaline water and is therefore ideal for cichlids from Lake Malawi and Lake Tanganyika.
• Even with a low CO2 supply the plant still grows rather well and is very easy to care for.
• The more familiar Cryptocoryne aponogetifolia looks confusingly similar.
