Like all Bucephalandra, it's an epiphyte — attach the rhizome to hardscape rather than burying it, and it will slowly form a dense, characterful clump. Each plant arrives potted in rockwool, ready to plant or split.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Benefits for Your Aquarium\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHardy and beginner-friendly:\u003c\/strong\u003e thrives in low to medium light with no CO2 required (better colour and a more compact form with both).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eShrimp- and fish-safe:\u003c\/strong\u003e a favourite in Caridina and Neocaridina tanks, with leaves that gather biofilm for shrimp to graze on.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompact and characterful:\u003c\/strong\u003e the rounded leaves and blue-tinged sheen make it a striking detail on wood and rock.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAttach anywhere:\u003c\/strong\u003e tie or glue the rhizome to hardscape for foreground and midground accents.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSlow, tidy growth:\u003c\/strong\u003e stays compact and low-maintenance, and propagates easily by splitting the rhizome.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCare Guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLighting:\u003c\/strong\u003e low to medium (higher light deepens colour)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCO2:\u003c\/strong\u003e not required (beneficial)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlacement:\u003c\/strong\u003e attach rhizome to hardscape — do not bury it\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTemperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 22–28°C\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGrowth rate:\u003c\/strong\u003e slow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGrown and shipped from Lithuania.
