Care Tips: Cryptocoryne pontederiifolia thrives in moderate to high light conditions and prefers a nutrient-rich substrate for healthy growth. It can tolerate a range of water conditions but benefits from stable, clear water. Like other Cryptocoryne species, it may undergo some initial leaf melting during acclimatization, which is temporary. Trimming dead or decaying leaves promotes fresh growth. CO₂ supplementation is beneficial for optimal growth.
