Why Choose Assorted Bucephalandra Small?
-
Mixed varieties in one listing
A selection of assorted Bucephalandra types, so you get a natural mix of forms and colours rather than just one cultivar. -
Perfect size for detail work
These small Bucephalandra plants are ideal for nano tanks, shrimp tanks and fine detail on wood and rock. -
Epiphyte aquarium plants
Bucephalandra are epiphytes and should be attached to hardscape rather than buried in the substrate, similar to Anubias and Java fern. -
Slow growing and low light friendly
Slow growing Bucephalandra do well in low to medium light and are suitable for a wide range of planted aquarium setups.
Basic Care for Bucephalandra Small Plants
-
Placement:
Attach Assorted Bucephalandra Small to wood, rocks or other hardscape using glue, thread or fishing line. Avoid burying the rhizome in the substrate. -
Lighting:
Low to medium light is usually ideal. Too much light without good CO₂ and nutrients can cause algae on the leaves. -
Water conditions (general guide):
- Temperature: around 22–28°C
- pH: roughly 6.0–7.5
- Soft to medium hardness is generally preferred
-
Growth rate:
Bucephalandra are naturally slow growing aquarium plants, which makes them easy to maintain but they won’t fill space quickly.
Great for Shrimp and Aquascaping
The textured leaves and compact growth of Assorted Bucephalandra Small make them excellent for shrimp tanks and detailed aquascapes. Shrimp and small fish enjoy grazing on the biofilm that forms on the leaves and rhizomes, while the plants themselves help create a mature, natural look in the aquarium.
Because this is an assorted Bucephalandra listing, the exact varieties you receive will vary depending on current availability, but all will be small Bucephalandra suitable for attaching to hardscape in your aquascape.
