Originating from Sri Lanka the Cryptocoryne petchii is a small plant with beautiful, slightly fluted leaf margins. The leaves become dark olive-brown with a violet underside. As with most crypts this plant needs little attention and will happily grow under low lighting.
Ideally place in the aquarium amongst rocks in clusters of two to three. This will create an ‘all-natural’ effect in your aquarium.
