Care Tips: Bucephalandra Green Wavy is a slow-growing, attractive plant that thrives in aquariums with low to medium lighting. It is well-suited for the midground or background of aquascapes, where it can create a lush, textured appearance with its wavy, deep green leaves. This plant is adaptable to a range of water conditions, though it grows best in slightly acidic to neutral pH levels. Bucephalandra Green Wavy should be attached to hard surfaces like driftwood, rocks, or lava stone, as it is a rhizome plant. It is essential to avoid burying the rhizome in the substrate, as this can lead to rotting. It also does well in nutrient-rich substrates, though it can grow in lower-nutrient setups as long as the lighting is adequate. While the plant has a slow growth rate and doesn’t require frequent trimming, removing old or damaged leaves will help it maintain its best appearance. Bucephalandra is sensitive to fluctuations in water parameters, so it’s important to keep water conditions stable for optimal health and growth.
