Care Tips: Bucephalandra Red Mini on Lava Stone is a slow-growing, low-maintenance plant that thrives in aquariums with low to medium lighting. It is ideal for those looking to add a unique, colorful plant to the midground or background of their aquascape. This variety has striking red and green leaves, which make it stand out among other plants. The plant is attached to a piece of lava stone, making it easy to place directly into the aquarium without the need to bury the rhizome. It is important to avoid submerging the rhizome in the substrate, as this can cause the plant to rot. Bucephalandra Red Mini is adaptable to a variety of water conditions but grows best in slightly acidic to neutral pH levels. It thrives in nutrient-rich substrates but can also grow well when attached to driftwood, rocks, or lava stone. Since it is a slow-grower, it doesn’t require frequent pruning. Bucephalandra Red Mini can be sensitive to sudden changes in water parameters, so maintaining a stable environment is key to its success in the aquarium.
