Cryptocoryne bullosa – 5cm pot – EU Grown

Cryptocoryne bullosa is a bushy and compact aquarium plant, with attractive broad green leaves with unusual veins throughout and sturdy stems.

Cryptocoryne bullosa looks especially effective when positioned in groups and 3-5 plants which shows off the beautiful textures of the leaves.

Understanding Crypt melt – all Cryptocoryne species require stable water parameter and light conditions. Once planted, Crypts should not be moved otherwise it can trigger what is called Crypt melt. If a Crypt has a significant change of environment (ph, kh , gh, lighting intensity or duration, root disturbance etc), Crypt melt can be triggered. The leaves start to disintegrate as the plant prepares for its new environment – DO NOT WORRY! Your plant will begin to grow back over the next 30 days (sometimes sooner, sometimes later) – it’s still very much alive and busy getting ready for the growth of new leaves. In the meantime, any decaying leaves should be trimmed and recycled in a compost bin.
