Category: Aquarium Plants

This Cryptocoryne from Sri Lanka used (mistakenly) to be called Cryptocoryne nevillii, but this is the name of a species that has never been used in aquariums. Like many other Cryptocorynes, not much happens the first month after planting. But then it starts to grow, and willingly produces plenty of runners which form a compact group. The plant becomes 7-20 cm tall, and each roset 7-15 cm wide.

Victoria ★★★★★

Planted this one in the back corner three weeks ago and it’s already sending out new leaves, even though the tank’s just running basic lighting. The roots took hold fast, and the leaf texture feels thicker than most crypts I’ve tried, which I’m guessing helps it stay put.

Nicholas Z. ★★★★★

I’ve kept other crypts before, but this one started sending out runners within just two weeks of being planted. The leaves are a nice, compact size, perfect for a midground spot in my tank.

Avery H. ★★★★★

Planting this Cryptocoryne was a breeze, and the deep green leaves are already thriving in my low-tech tank—it's much hardier than I expected. I love that it stays compact, perfect for the foreground.
