Care Tips: Cryptocoryne tropica is a relatively hardy and adaptable plant. It thrives in low to moderate light and prefers a nutrient-rich substrate. Like other Cryptocoryne varieties, it may experience leaf melting during acclimatization, but this is temporary. Regular pruning of older leaves will encourage fresh growth. CO₂ supplementation is optional but can enhance the growth rate and overall health of the plant.
