Buce Red Miniis a farm-grown variant of Bucephalandra. This is a very rare plant, and as the name suggests, it has very small leaves which can develop a nice reddish purple tint when grown submerged over a long period of time. Like all Buce, this plant grows extremely slow. Itcan be propagated by cutting the rhizome and attached to driftwood and rocks using super glue gel or thread.
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.
Bucephalandras 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.
Do not make drastic changes to the aquarium. Unstable parameters will result in melt and rotting of the aquarium plant.
Please be sure to remove this plant from its pot. Remove the cotton surrounding the roots and plant into a quality substrate. For instructions on how to properly prep “potted” aquarium plants, clickhere.
CO2 injection will yield better growth.
Please research appropriately to ensure your plant thrives.
