Planting Tips
Do not bury the rhizome in the substrate, as this can cause the plant to rot. Instead, attach it to driftwood, rocks, or other hardscape using aquarium-safe glue, thread, or fishing line. Over time, the roots will naturally anchor themselves to the surface.
Shipping Note: Bucephalandra may experience minor leaf loss or temporary melting after shipping or when introduced to a new aquarium. This is a normal acclimation process, and healthy plants will produce new growth once established.
Whether you're creating a lush shrimp habitat or designing an award-worthy aquascape, Assorted Bucephalandra adds timeless beauty and unique character that only improves with time.
Please Note: Since this is an assorted listing, the exact variety, size, and coloration will vary based on current availability. Every plant is hand-selected to ensure it is healthy and ready to grow.
